Pros

The pay was higher than average.

Cons

Employees are treated as robots whose needs are non-existent in the eyes of supervisors. At the location that I worked there was a huge problem with racism in the deli.

Pros

I was able to experience life riding the bus every day as I could not afford a car after mine broke down. It really opened my eyes to what life is like for the uneducated lower class of society.

Cons

There is absolutely nothing good about working here anymore, a while back they even took away profit sharing so no more bonuses for employees who already make too little to survive on.

Pros

Paid weekly, that’s about it!

Cons

To many to name, but here is a few. No weekends off. Hard to get a raise no matter how hard you work they will nickel and dime you to death. They have a good ole boy system in place, in which the only way to get promoted is because of who you know and/or your skin color is the of a lighter hue. You have to accrue your vacation time and if you resign or quit, then you have to pay the money back to the company. This company is different from what it used to be!
