      Pros

      They do have some benefits, they will work with your availability, and will five you the time off that you need, as an employee you are able to earn hours that you can use when you need off.

      Cons

      I have had some managers who don't know how to talk to there employees in the correct manner, you only get benefits if you work at least 35 hrs for no less than 6 months and, I have not been satisfied with my pay raises in relationship to my job performance.

      Sstisfying but not fulfilling

      Pros

      I have worked at Wawa for 7 years. I like some of the local regular customers. I have worked at several stores and I generally like the people I work with and for. Once I was promoted to management I recieved a good pay raise.

      Cons

      The stores are usually in poor neighborhoods leading to some unsavory experiences. Very inconsistant with their teachings they definitely do not practice what they preach. A lot of favoritism and politics go into it. Who you know is crucial. Dead end if you are not apart of the in crowd. Load the work on you the higher up you go.

      Challenging and rewarding career in a fast paced environment.

      Pros

      Interaction with a great customer base. Ability to interact with peers. Great opportunity to develop management skills through workshops and training modules. Very technologically advanced. Constant expansion of store base and product choices.

      Cons

      In its constant quest to capture market share while still controlling costs, Wawa has expanded its offerings of food service products to the point where the labor and facilities needed to support these offerings is no longer in balance. By trying to be everything for everybody Wawa has lost sight of some core values that made the company a leader in convenience retailing. Value People has been contorted to mean value the bottom dollar at the expense of overextending the capabilities of its staff of associates. Do The Right Thing now means pushing more programs and products that increase the profit line but at the expense of associates working in facilities that are poorly set up to accommodate the changes. Do Things Right has completely lost its face value meaning of five years ago in a sea of documentation and unrealistic expectations of its associates.
