Pros

People place. Small town feeling. You really were able to get to know the customers.

Cons

Some are open later than others and some open earlier. Just depends on your preference

Pros

I'm not sure that many people would describe this kind of retail job as fun, but speaking to my particular store I found the environment to be friendly among the employees.

Cons

Again the store location is of prime importance, but working in a grocery store in a low income neighborhood exposes you to some of the greediest, entitled and worthless people alive.

Pros

Well it is close to home. Friendly customers, and friendly staff for the most part. Fun place to work, and isn't very demanding. Plus asking for days off in advance is usually met with an approval.

Cons

The pay is PITIFUL unless you're a store manager or higher up. Raises are pretty much nonexistent and a forbidden work to speak of. Some management at store level feel that they are greatly above you, in a demeaning manor.
