Awful - Sales Associate Ocean State Job Lot Employee Review

Pros

None really, depending on the location you might have some great managers.

Cons

The company refuses to invest any of its profit into its workforce or even into modernizing their stores. Anything they post in response to this review will be either an outright lie or gross distortion of the facts. Oh, and no holiday pay or Sunday pay unless it’s required by the state you work in.
