Pros

Profit sharing checks are given out twice a year. There are also monthly associate discounts. Most of the co-workers are nice.

Cons

Management is always negative. Never recognize or appreciate those who go over and beyond what is expected. Excessive drug testing. I find it very undignified and demeaning to provide a urine sample for no specific reason. I have been tested 4 times now, it's ridiculous. If I was driving a truck or forklift maybe, but geez, I work in the deli. Employee burnout.

Pros

You get paid every week.

Cons

• They talk to you like you're stupid. • Their tone becomes more aggressive when you don't brown nose them. • They don't lead by example nor implement any teamwork. • They make daily operations more difficult to complete as a flex. • They disguise their racism towards employees as company policy institution. • They become spiteful when you don't fall in line and take out their frustration on your workers while store management look the other way. • They talk negatively about you in group chats and emails. • They pretend to be inefficient when they don't want to help. • They harass & imprison your workers as soon as you clock out (by eyewitness accounts). • Management will sabotage your evaluation, hire special needs people for critical thinking jobs, & accept underperforming associates from other stores just to save money. • Higher-ups will deny qualified applicants employment while conspiring to hire the children of old classmates who purposefully show up to work late. • Store management will physically assault minors who steal on the premises and act openly racists to shoppers of color.
