Dollar General reviews

How your experiences will be is entirely determined by which manager you work with. In this, you should consider that Dollar General management is hired at cut-rate prices, and you'll have cut-rate people. I have overseen roughly 10+ management rotations over 4-5 different stores, and the rate of finding decent management is roughly 20%. The other 80% ended up stealing from the company, abusing workers, leaving management duties to subordinate staff, and playing heavily with favoritism. It was unpleasant to watch. I, fortunately, started out with a manager in that 20% positive category and moved up, not knowing how unique my situation was. After entering management level, I was sent around to help other stores come up to the level of ours.. and this is where the nightmares began. Heavy mismanagement is a growing trend amongst these stores, and the better you become, the more they want to send you to the worse stores to straighten them out, with other, less cooperative management. It is high stress, low pay, and management lacking.. as a final conclusion. I have since moved on to much better compensation.

Having an adequate number of employees on hand is a rarity. There are many places were a lack of simple organization in management can cause problems in the ability for employees to perform simple day-to-day tasks.
