Wawa reviews

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.

This may not apply to all stores in every state but for the wawa that I work at in general. Half the employees NEVER show up on time to work so you can never get off on time when you've had a long busy day and can hardly stand anymore. Very poor management overall in the scheduling, the number of people on each shift, store tidiness, organization. We are a VERY!! busy wawa on the weekends and we always end up getting behind on most things in the store. Managers just walk around the store all day long doing nothing especially our assistant general manager who does nothing but bark off orders and complain about even being on the register. I am not a manager of any type and i do the most work out of every single employee including the assistant manager. only one that does more work is the general manager themselves. Really sketchy management basically overall. Customer issues is to be expected since they never pay attention or even both to look for something because they're too lazy to do it their-selves, then they want to complain about it when they make their own mistakes, but all that is to be expected because thats just how people are nowadays. When something needs to desperately be done they dont even bother to care if it ever gets done. Really annoying and immature employees, mainly because wawa attracts associates ages 17 to 21. Overall my experience there after only being there for 6 or 7 months has been EXTREMELY stressful and lastly, we have basically failed starz .. every .. single TIME!! end of story ..
