Pros

The only good part about working here was the Coworkers that I met.

Cons

The pay was terrible, and the store was poorly run. If you ever work part-time, be careful because they cut your hours out of nowhere.

Pros

There are no pros to working at Dollar General

Cons

As a store manager you work 7 days awake. At least 10+ hours a day. If I get a day off I get a call from my DM asking when will I be at the store
