Pros
I have worked for OSJL for 14 years. In that time I have seen incredible change for the good. In the last 2 years, Ownership, along with our CHRO have launched a full scale culture commitment with more incentives and improvements than in the 12 previous years! The feeling of Family is very much attributed to the TREAT program that began in our chain of stores has come to the Corporate Offices and Distribution Center which has improved the day to day interactions and promotes teamwork. We're on a smoke free campus, our health care coverage picks up the treatments when we want to quit smoking, have a weight loss program for those interested, the culture is health oriented. Company 20% discount in our stores, discounted tickets to national theaters, recreational/water parks, the three Company owned restaurants, the two Company owned car dealerships, medical coverage, dental coverage, direct deposit, FSA....to name a few... Ocean State Job Lot has been extremely generous in our communities where we do business as well. Food Banks, Hospitals, Military, First Responders, the list grows every year...
Cons
Any cons that may have been here when I first started have long since disappeared, I truly don't believe there is anything negative related to OSJL,.
