Pros

I stayed with this company for one reason: its community presence. After jumping from shift to shift every other day for months the customers begin to think you actually live there. I had no problem with this, as I found myself having a positive effect on these people's lives. It is a wonderful feeling when a customer goes out of their way to find you in the store just to say hello. You build relationships not only with your co-workers but also with the community. And prior to the company's movement toward gas stores, community involvement/customer service was its biggest selling point.

Cons

There are few reasons I will not work for this company again. But, some of the cons would be - Poor communication - Management teams vary immensely from store to store

Pros

Reasons to work at wawa as a CSA: You don't need to be management to get benefits Upper management is very caring and genuine Very flexible schedule since it's open 24/7 Clean and safe work environment Pay is slightly better than most entry level retail positions Dress code is enforced but they're not THAT ugly. You can wear comfy tennis shoes which is important when you're on your feet all day! Training is very detailed and they make sure you are comfortable in every area. Nice corporate culture The company encourages a healthy lifestyle so all the "healthy" food is 50% off for employees

Cons

Downsides of being a CSA at wawa: On your feet your ENTIRE shift and there's no 15 minute breaks. only one 30 min Can deal with rude customers Some of the lower-level management can have a little too much power over CSAs Deli can be very intense depending on the time of day and who you're working with.
