Pros

Dollar General has great policies in place. They make it interesting to come in for each shift you are scheduled. You know 2 weeks work schedule in advance. Things change witht he seasons, so your always busy.

Cons

I think they put managers in position before they are really ready to take on such a powerful position. Computer based learning is a great tool they offer, but short staffing keeps good employees from having time it takes to do them...therefor, leaving door open for them to make mistakes, getting wrote-up or worse. DM would come in and talk straight to Mgr, never doing more than saying "Hello" to clerk on duty.
