Pros

you can get more than minimum wage, which in this particular market is good. yeah, that's about it

Cons

if you're not one of the special ones, you will only ever be given a handful of hours. New people who do nothing all day will have more than you. Since management makes your schedule specifically as to have no direct contact with you, there's no way to communicate. Your emails will go unanswered, and handwritten notes asking them to contact you will be ignored. If your 2nd job that you must get to survive working there is a restaurant, the store manager may confront you telling you that working at a grocery store and a restaurant is a conflict of interests, and give you an ultimatum to decide which one to work.

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)
