Pros

I love the people I work directly with..Were a great team. Our store manager is awesome and has the up most respect for all employees..Flexible hours..Room for advancement. Great work atmosphere..We are loved and a necessity in our community..

Cons

The corporate end of Dollar Tree sucks.. They removed our music, Started buying cheaper thinner shopping bags..So a lot of times we have to use two bags defeating the purpose of thinner bags..Took away our glass wrapping paper (we now have to bring our own newspaper to wrap customers glass in). Our vacuum is broken and they have known about it for a month.. I brought in two of my own personal vacuums to help keep our store presentable..We have carpet and I swept with a broom for two weeks..I've been there for a year and am so post to get a raise and haven't received it even after several reminders from my manager. They are just being cheap..And they are probably getting paid more by saving on things we need for our store..It makes me sad to know that the place I work , cares nothing for the people that keep it running for them...

Pros

Working at Dollar Tree provided valuable hands-on leadership experience across every aspect of retail operations. I strengthened my skills in inventory management, merchandising, freight planning, staffing, customer service, compliance, and operational execution. The fast-paced environment challenged me to think quickly, prioritize effectively, and develop my team while delivering results. The relationships I built with my associates and customers were by far the most rewarding part of the job.

Cons

The workload often exceeded the labor hours provided, making it challenging to consistently meet operational expectations. Store managers were frequently expected to handle multiple responsibilities while working with lean staffing levels. Facility and equipment issues sometimes took longer than expected to resolve, and support from upper management could be inconsistent. While the job offered valuable experience, maintaining work-life balance could be difficult during peak freight and seasonal periods.
