Pros

Jobs are hard to find. We have fun at work, but can't make a living. Still thankful to have a job in this economy.

Cons

Work here only as a last resort, as having a job aids in finding another job. Not complaining, but the pay here is awful. I have made more on unemployment than I make here.

Pros

None. This is the worst company I've ever worked for. The pay is not commeasurate with the amount of work that you were expected to do. Dollar General runs their stores on skeleton crews and each person is expected to do the work of 3 to four people.

Cons

Everything. From dealing with incredibly rude customers, to the pay, to the workload and everything in between. Again, this is the worst company that I have ever worked for and I've definitely had my fair share of jobs in my lifetime.
