Dollar General reviews

-A multitude of tasks are thrown at you daily, and there are usually only two employees per shift to do them, in addition to cashiering. Often given jobs that require you to leave your post to do, then regularly stop what you're doing to check the front and see if anyone needs checked out. There's a reason most retail establishments have bells at the front to ring if customers need help! -They often send us boxes of product when we always have shelves full of it. You cannot only put out one or two items at a time, so if you can't put an entire box worth of items out, you have to leave them all in and pile them up in the back...then corporate gets mad at your manager for having a full back room! How can they be so out of touch with our needs? -Stockers are require to empty one rolltainer worth of goods per hour. Half the time there is a display on the rolltainer that must be built, or you have to move product around to accommodate special items...tasks that can easily take up 10-20 minutes or longer! Still, one rolltainer emptied per hour, no exception. -No employee discounts! C'mon, even WAL-MART, widely considered one of the worst places to work in America, gives their employees discounts. -Oh, and did I mention that as of last week, employees can no longer void items? Now only managers can do so, so if they're gone to the bank or out to lunch, the employees are helpless to void an item, thus immobilizing the ENTIRE STORE.

Wish I could've known more as far as graphing /charting~feel more confident where to get the information needed. I had to quit because I couldn't get to Chicago for training due to vehicle problems. At least I got to start up a brand new store & get it off the ground.Wish I could've stayed and grew with the company but there was no compromising the issue
