Pros

• can work nights while you go to school in the day • minimum supervision • you get a check • Fridays off

Cons

• no REAL training • you can sometimes be working up till 4 or 5 am. • some of the supervisors of the stores you work at are rude and mean. These are people who have to sign off of your work before you can leave for the night. • often seem to make mistakes on your checks • They have no office in Michigan. You may meets your supervisor at a restaurant for orientation or at the store they have you work at. • They don't supply any tools for you to do your work. Like, measuring tape, scissors, tape, step ladders, gloves for working in extremely cold freezers, markers, pens, etc.

Pros

There used to be some Pros but those have been taken away

Cons

-Your immediate boss is outsourced to a different company putting a roadblock in any hope of advancement. -People in the store hate you because you make work for them. Customers hate you because you move their products. Nobody appreciates anything you do. -Be prepared to be asked "do you work for Stop & Shop? 10000 times daily. -Today for example our work was finished at 9:30am and we stood at the front of Stop & Shop until 12:30 doing nothing. -DO NOT fall into this black hole of agony. Get a meaningful internship or entry level position at a respected company.
