Got driven out by upper management

Pros

Benefits are great. The pay rate was OK. The PTO was by far my favorite. PTO was probably the best plan I've seen at any company.

Cons

Upper management treating people like they are worthless. People getting the short end of the stick because they aren't in the "in" group. If the general manager and an associate are close, the associate will most likely get promoted. There's no equal treatment with upper management. If you and your AGM and GM don't get along you don't survive in the company. Also, there was no balance of work/life balance. My family would be devastated that I would work such weird schedules. At times I would be scheduled 6am-3pm and other times 11am-11pm. Several times I was scheduled 11am-8pm and then come back the next day and work 3am-2pm.

Pros

You meet some really interesting people, and make some good friends. Free coffee is a plus.

Cons

Management is HORRIBLE. No support, No Communication. They stray severely far away from companies "Core Values." Favoritism is played in our store. Management only pays attention to "the favorites". I've been working here a year and am just now getting trained to actually do my job, however people who have been here less than 6 months are being trained to reconcile register tills by the IMM.... I thought that was a job for management.. Hours are always inconsistent, and your availability is completely ignored, OR it's looked at and scheduled in a spiteful way. Lot's of drama, and gossip circulating the store. Can't trust anyone. High turn around in our store, always new faces, ALWAYS new management. Store never stocked. Basic things like forks and cup holders run out. Our store is infested with fruit flies, again.. management doesn't care. Shift managers play on cell phones all night, and threaten to kick paying customers out of the store, because they don't like their attitudes. Welcome to retail. No work ethic at all. Maybe it's just our store, but I doubt it. "Employee of the Month" is picked and fixed by management. I personally have been voted in twice, but management (doesn't like me) picked other people (whom... go figure .. are FAVORITES) to be employee of the month holders. Rude, sarcastic comments, demeaning attitude and oppressive atmosphere served up by general manager. Always makes wawa the first place i want to run to. Not.
