      Not what I thought

      Pros

      The hours. Closed Sundays. The pay.

      Cons

      Having to listen to the same music, day after day, month after month. Being open til 5:30 on Christmas Eve and New Years eve and being open on New Years Day. Lack of communication from Managment. Certain managers have their favorites and doesnt care who knows it. The company is known as a Christian company but that is about as Christian as it gets. DM has very little encouragment for employees. Rules change often and then change back. Nothing ever seems good enough.

      Pros

      Some weekends off. Good place if you just want to be an hourly employee.

      Cons

      On the road a lot. Must be "IN" with upper management for promotions. Pay is low for workload given. Long hours and hard to get time off. Looked down apon when asked for time off to see doctors. Benefits are below stanards and must take in first 30 days or there is no opportunity to receive them after. They send information packets to wrong addresses so you can receive the benefits.

      Pros

      -(Generally) good comradery between employees. -Challenging and fast paced work environment. -Good pay rate compared to other retail stores.

      Cons

      I was hired as part time under the pretense that I'd be full time status 90 days after hire. That was over a year and a half ago; I'm still part time. I am working an average of 32-40 hours weekly (often more hours than the full time employees) during normal seasons and 55+ hours a week during the holiday seasons. I don't mind the hours but I get no benefits whatsoever. I was sick for a week but could not get sick days because of my part time status so I lost over 300 dollars on one of my paychecks. I've also been unable to take any kind of paid (or unpaid) vacation over the span of this year and 8 months because of the part time status. I may be the highest paid stockman there but the lack of PTO is killing me! In a more general note: They send far more "sendout" freight than we can make room for in addition to stuff that isn't on any layout and then gripe about us being unable to make it look pretty.
