Pros

The hours it is open means you can schedule shifts to fit your school schedule.

Cons

The district manager refused to let us close when a hurricane was hitting, despite closing all 7-11's around us because our store "was making too many sales" off of the last few people on the roads who needed gas. Hours after the police/emergency planners said that no one should travel on the roads (the winds were scary and dangerous at this point), the district manager kept telling us to stay open. The other employee and I told him (over the phone, since the district mgr was safe at home, of course) that we refused to stay longer and closed the store against his orders. This complete disregard for our safety was the reason I quit.

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.
