Pros

There is not one good reason to work for Dollar General

Cons

The stress the managers go through is treadful. The pay for what the management team is below average. They are constantly building stores. Why don't they take some of the increased sales money they are making and increase the salaries or offer more for current employee's They ask too much from the employee's but continue to pay them minumum wage. No tools for the management team to work with. I have been offered a salary management position but would never accept it seeing what my manager goes through. They do not care about your personal life. The turnover rate is over or close to 100%.

Pros

The basic benefits were good, but the fringe benefits were better. During my tenure, I received stock options and a team share bonus in addition to my salary every year. The bonus were based on a percentage of your salary.

Cons

The distribution center I worked at engaged in a lot of clique activity. This was my greatest obstacle. However, it is my understanding that much of this activity has been dismantled by corporate office.
