Pros

Hard work pays off, and is recognized and rewarded! Many "at the top" started in the stores and worked their way up. If you are ambitious and won't take no for an answer, this is the career choice for you. In retail, it's not where you start, it's where you finish. Where will your career take you? At Dollar General you control your career!

Cons

Same issues as other retailers in this economy

Pros

The job itself is easy. The cash register, stocking (especially the totes and dry truck) and cleaning are so simple however there are certain things that make it difficult, although the work itself is not (under the right circumstances.)

Cons

They never have enough people on shift so it’s always difficult to get things done. It seems like all the managers I know from the store I worked at and the surrounding ones are all so deep into drama it made me wonder if I was back in high school. Dry truck always seems to bring far too much and the stores are so little that overstock is a huge issue here. The reason I ultimately left was due to severe mistreatment and some safety concerns I had regarding some past experiences. I am very glad I left and I would not ever go back.
