Pros
It goes without saying that the best thing about QT is their pay and benefits. Also, there are thousands of amazing individuals who work for this company. It is quite rare that you have a bad experience with another employee. The company wants to develop their employees not only as their employees, but as individuals. This is very apparent from day one starting as a store clerk. A good amount of time off (5 personal, 10 sick days a year, rolling calendar.) Paid Vacation time A tad pricey but all inclusive health care plan
Cons
Sometimes the store that you’re at just sucks to work at. The bad ones are usually either in a high drug traffic (urban) area, a slow area (you get less employee hours but you have to check the dates on EVERYTHING because it spoils), or a high volume area (managing 43 different things at once is difficult). The overnights are not only potentially dangerous as you are by yourself, but you also have a lot expected to be done At least in my division, they work you as if you are two or three people No discounts/free food aside from free fountain drinks and stale food items No breaks, even if you work 8+ hours or a double! How is this even legal?! The training that I received going from clerk to shift manager was spotty at best. I’ve been in this position for nearly 2 months and there’s still so many unanswered questions. Mandatory 46 hour work week is dreadful. Be prepared to say goodbye to your hobbies and friends. You’ll only want to eat and sleep. Sometimes, there will be no coverage for a manager or a clerk that has called out, so guess what? You get to work a double!
