Pros

They have a guaranteed minimum hours because of the union rules, you get to set your schedule and can work in the graveyard shift if your store is 24 hours (boring and slow but don't have to deal with a lot of stuff), easy to get promoted if you've been on the job long enough, and weekly paychecks.

Cons

The pay is a little low and when you add on taxes and union dues it gets even more smaller, there's a lot of crazy people out there and they need to shop for food so most likely you'll get to interact with them which isn't pleasant, working outside grabbing carts when its +90 degrees or raining isn't fun.

Pros

- Most managers work around your schedule - Good first job to gain experience - Most employees are easy to get along with - No training required

Cons

- The management was very spotty and inconsistent. Some managers operated very strongly while others were simply incompetent. - Union dues take a large chunk of paychecks - Not much room to move up / increase pay. - Hours can fluctuate dramatically - Supervisors switch very often making it difficult to get acquainted with them. - Quite a bit of strenuous physical demands (standing and running)
