7-Eleven reviews

I work morning shift, so the store is pretty much dead every day until around noon. When there are no customers it is extremely boring. We have a checklist of tasks each shift must do, and once that's done you're just standing around, watching the clock. Being on your feet for 8 hours straight with no designated breaks on a shift, but you can smoke any time it's not busy. If you want to eat during your 8 hour shift, you either have to order or eat the crappy food sold in the store at full price. Tons of drama between employees. Dealing with extremely rude and disrespectful customers. No one really knows how to do everything, and the regular employees are left to train new employees so we're all getting second hand information. Don't be surprised to come in and see your hours cut.

franchise system watering down brand image. out of control franchise system stores less than a mile apart can have huge shopping experience differences in cleanliness customer service and pricing of merchandise. market managers seem withdrawn from the problems or don't care most franchises lack the standard business know how and only receive a 4 week training class .
