Pros

Free Slurpees, Coffee, Expired Sandwiches

Cons

I have TONS of Cons here. I currently still work for 7-Eleven, but I am about to quit soon. I can't take it anymore. I have worked here for two years ( I am a college student). Here are just some of the cons from my experience working at 7-Eleven. -Pay is LOW. Started off at minimum wage. Only have been given a raise ONE time, $.50 cents, in two years. I asked for a raise, was not given one. -They OVER work you. You feel like you are some type of robot working here. You work alone 99% of the time. There are no overlaps. That means you must change the trash, maintain coffee, maintain the grill, change the bibs, stock cups/lids, do the cooler, do orders, all WHILE TAKING CARE of customers. I come home to a hurting body everyday, -It's CONSTANTLY busy. This pretty much kills my back, constantly ringing up people. -There is no room to move up anywhere. I feel like I am stranded as a sales associate. Corporate came to our store for two weeks to clean, and they witnessed told me and my boss how great and friendly of a worker I am. Nothing happened from there. It's been six months. Also- when someone spills a slurpee or coffee, your screwed. Your all alone to clean it up, all between customers. If you want to be over worked and underpaid, this job is for you.

Pros

good work value and environment friendly

Cons

The manager would call my phone at 3 am to tell me to unload a truck full of drinks alone, constantly, even though it was never mentioned or docked as pay.

Pros

· Guaranteed overtime — Night shifts often ran long, and overtime was consistently available. · $14/hour starting pay — Standard for the role, but the overnight differential helped. · Overnight schedule — Good for night owls or anyone who prefers a quieter work environment. · Hudson Oaks PD presence — Police regularly stopped by, which made the late hours feel safer. · Minimal direct supervision — No manager breathing down your neck during night shifts. You were trusted to run the store independently.

Cons

· No training provided — Promised during the interview, never delivered. · Missing cleaning supplies — Brooms, glass cleaner, disinfectant were frequently unavailable. · Poor communication from management — Last-minute schedule changes, full voicemail box, unanswered requests. · Unreliable morning crew — Night shift often had to stay late because morning people didn't show up on time. · Terminated after setting a boundary — Asked to leave at scheduled end time; was fired the next day.
