Pros
Expansion means you can work close to home
Cons
Very bad hours, I was introduced at 50 hours and was asked to go to multiple stores and was given 80 hours almost immediately. I left because of this. Upper management lacks direction and training, I had a lot of unanswered questions and the common expression was "Well that is just how DG does it, I don't know why" Pay for store managers is the lowest in the entire retail industry on a bell curve New stores are not being built large enough to handle volume Managers are not given the hours/labor to complete tasks assigned in a realistic way. Store manager has to pick up all the slack. No work life balance
