Pros

Meet many different people and gain a respect for the people who put up with the customer service industry. Also store managers can make really good money through commission bonus

Cons

Low pay, little respect, minimal benefits unless you are store manager or higher. Company/management takes any tips you receive from customers

Pros

-Rotating Weekends (Work Sat/Off Sun then Off Sat/Work Sun) -Flexible Scheduling

Cons

-You are expected to do a lot of work for very little pay -Being promoted is extremely unlikely and any wage increases is purely for inflation, not because they think you deserve it. -If you do not fight for higher wages they will not give it (I knew someone who has worked full-time in the deli for years longer than I, but somehow he made less than me) - Deli Management is very clique like, the assistant store manager has many complaints filed against him. -Expected to work holidays, no holiday pay or overtime (ever)
