Pros

Company expectations are very clear.

Cons

Our truck comes on Saturday. Thus, all employees have to work on Saturday. I need week days off and Saturdays work fine for me. I have coworkers that would like to have a Saturday off once in awhile.

Pros

The weekly pay, wellness benefits, 401k, stock options, honesty, integrity, brand awareness.

Cons

Fantastic challenges as an entry level associate to learn, work, and manage merchandise with the limited space, but better than Walmart strategically.

Pros

I've enjoyed a very exciting, fast paced and friendly work environment at DG. We work hard but we make a difference in the lives of those we serve --- Our Customers...Our Employees and the Communities in which we Serve. Not every day is great (no company is) but we do have great people that help you get through the tough times, great initiatives and an exciting future. I'm not for sure that you could ask for anything more.

Cons

Every job has parts that people like....so nothing I could add here. DG is not perfect but it is worth the effort.
