Pros

Great company to work for, great opportunities for advancement. Excellent benefits. Public has come to know Dollar General as a friendly store, often knowing their customers by name. Creates a sort of a "family" atmosphere. Not something you will find at Wal-Mart or Kmart. I am proud to work for Dollar General, they are a simple company that started off small and are growing by leaps and bounds everyday, while the competitors are going bankrupt Dollar General is growing stronger everyday with new stores opening weekly across the country, creating new jobs for everyday people.

Cons

Lots of hours as a store manager, maybe not a good career choice for someone with a family

Pros

None. This is the worst company I've ever worked for. The pay is not commeasurate with the amount of work that you were expected to do. Dollar General runs their stores on skeleton crews and each person is expected to do the work of 3 to four people.

Cons

Everything. From dealing with incredibly rude customers, to the pay, to the workload and everything in between. Again, this is the worst company that I have ever worked for and I've definitely had my fair share of jobs in my lifetime.
