        Pros

        You get a 401 (K) to help towards your retirement. Everyone at this dollar general is so nice and so friendly and will help you and welcome you. It pays really well!!!

        Cons

        You may not get the hours you want straight away, but you’ll get them eventually…you have to be patient and discuss it privately with the store manager

      Underwriter

      I've completed an initial phone screening interview, followed by a 2-hour interview with the Department VP. Next in the process are three separate 90-minute peer interviews. Is there a possibility of another interview after the peer interviews, or should I anticipate receiving an offer?
