Pros

Great people, very good benefits, allows time off when needed, competitive pay, regular company events, nice offices, business casual dress code, growing company which has managed well during tough economic times.

Cons

advancement potential limited, outdated systems, poor communication from management, no job training-mostly because managers are too busy, lack of respect from senior management to associates in some cases.The company values are posted everywhere and get a lot of lip service but are not regularly adhered to by management. Many people overwhelmed and stressed by their heavy workload. Most senior level executives are micro managers.

Pros

I like working at DG hours great, close to home. Enjoy local people coming in and bering able to help.

Cons

Lots and lots to do. There's gotta be a better way to cover schedules when the truck comes in. Power hours and Power days should be a phrase to describe. Communication w/staff could help. Everyone should help. Learns the store
