Pros

The work is fast paced and rarely gets boring. It's not incredibly monotonous. The customers (depending on the store) are friendly and chatty and it makes days go by more quickly.

Cons

Management is incredibly inconsistent from store to store. Some stores follow wawa's standards to the minutest detail, some hold themselves to even more stringent standards and some go willy nilly and do whatever they want. Certain stores (looking at you Wawa on the boulevard and tyson) hold employees to unrealistic, unattainable expectations. Managers oftentimes take credit where none is due and lower level employees work their tails off for sub-standard wages.

Pros

(Depending on your manager) you can take the tasks at your own pace and do what feels best, based on what you see. The position I'm in allows headphone use if you're not visible to customers.

Cons

Skeletal shifts are the norm, employee burnout is rampant and unaddressed. Manager turnover is very high at my store, which makes establishing consistency impossible. I get the impression that the conditions for employees vary greatly by store. That said, if you find yourself stuck at a rougher one, your options are to either take the toll to your physical and mental health, or to quit/transfer to a better store. I have personally experienced many legal violations at my place of employment. (keeping the store open and functioning when the workers don't have a bathroom [OSHA fixed that]) (and a few incidents where hours were not properly entered for employees, causing them to work without pay) I have worked here for 4 years without benefits, one year only missing the hour-cutoff for it by an average of 20 minutes. Consistent schedules are very uncommon for employees.
