    my least liked retail job

    Mar 22, 2023 - Front End Cashier in Oregon City, OR
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    you don't have to wear a uniform better starting wage if you have experience decent benefits, part timers still get vacation time after they stick around enough and sometimes you get a bonus pretty easy to get promoted

    Cons

    extremely busy store, but very understaffed. courtesy clerks are very underpaid so they never stay around for long. expect to do your own bagging at least half of the time. they want you to be a robot; if you are not at the checking speed they want, they coach you every week and make you sign a form. there are forms for other things too. it was very off putting at first. other stores do not do this. their expectations are ridiculous too. lot of MAGAs shop here because their pandemic response was very half assed

    Pros

    The co-workers are mostly great. Pay is decent. Mostly flexible scheduling.

    Cons

    I used to have a life outside of work. Now even on my off days and times I'm still dealing with work issues. It seems like some departments are supported more than others by upper management. I work in one of the hardest departments, we don't have enough hours available to staff the department for all the tasks that need to be completed.
