7-Eleven Employer Reviews

Management is good but work place is not good. Our co workers
is helpful and managed everything in time.

A typical day at work for me consist of assisting costumers at the register, answering their questions face to face and incoming calls, and keeping the place organized for good presentation. I have very friendly co-workers and managers always being patient to customers. My favorite part of the job is being able to make some ones day or turning it around – more...  with a smile. The difficult part of this job is not being able to advance in life, i feel as if its a dead end job. But i am thankful because it helped me get great costumer service experience. – less

A typical day at 7-Eleven involved firstly of ordering any products needed and checking for shortages of any kind, and managing accounts.

got one drive off one day i have look the camera for the reg and i contacted the cops.
responsibility to take care a store and friendly customer care.
the enjoyable part is really the customer care.

I worked harder than any of the others in the management training program - cleaning and serving customers and got let go because of the inefficiences in the training program (computer based and boring as heck!). The training manager was a lazy so and so who did no training.
My advice - DON'T DO IT !! You can find a better job.

• Handling customers in fast paced and busy environment
• Handling cash
• Graveyard duties
• Taking fuel dips
• Keeping the store tidy and organized
• Taking C-store Deliveries

There were many great and rough days at work but i didnt let anything get to me. I still had a big smile on my face and focused on my duties. I learned alot, i learned how to operate a register machine, learned how to order items for store. I learned how to check-in deliveries. But most important of all i learned what Customer Service is all about. – more...  I had some friendly co-workers and some that didnt like me but i kept my cool and still did what i needed to do. The hardest part of the job was when my co-workers were busy talking and not helping me. But somehow i would always find ways to get things done and help customers by myself without co-workers. The most enjoyable part of the job was meeting new people, lots of them were nice. But not only that but to gain the exprience of what working is like. – less

Run Cash register, credit card machine. Sell lottery tickets. Stock little shelfs inside store. Order new inventory. Make fresh coffee every 30 minutes.

Nothing hard about this job..

Atypical day at work was always fast paced, I learned something new everyday whether or not it was threw my co-workers or a customer that walked threw the door.The hardest part of my job was rude customers but i could not let it get to me or let it frustrate me, because for every bad customer there was tons more of great customers to come. The most – more...  enjoyable part of my job was meeting new people everyday at work and seeing how each and every person lived their lives. – less

District manager position means force franchisees
To purchase many items that don't sell. Little integrity
from operations. Dallas office is much better from
support standpoint than division offices. Lots of games
played to fool senior management from reality.

Raises SUCK if you get one. Management gossip and start rumors. ALWAYS laying off.
JUST pray for a good department

The people at this store were the best I've ever had the pleasure to work with. All of the management were extremely understanding and nice. I only left because the hours were slow and I was returning to school.

-- as a 23 year-old young adult, I can say that working at 7-Eleven was one of the worst work experiences I've ever had since graduating high-school in 2008.

A typical day would start off as either me showing up early in the morning... or late at night (Between the hours 10 p.m. and 11 p.m.) to a messy store, the staff member (Normally alone) would – more...  be trying to clean up the store as best as possible... but given the nature of the night-shift... and working alone and over-tired, stuff that would normally take five minutes drags on to about half-an-hour or more and it might not get done at all.

The manager would show up and demand to know why those small thing haven't been finished, and the excuse "I didn't have enough time because it was busy tonight--" wasn't accepted. And I would receive a stern talking to and a Pink slip.

The management demanded near-perfection during inspections, and would only accept a rating of 90% or higher. anything below a 90 rating would result in a pink slip for a failed inspection.

The other staff members were also suffering from work related stress issues and many would just not want to show up and were either fired, or they quit on the spot.

Sadly... the most enjoyable part of working at 7-Eleven was "Quitting Time". And as I discovered after working at this one location for three years... the money itself wasn't even worth it in the long run. – less

7 Eleven was a good job. Worked well with all my fellow employees.

I have never been subjected to such poor working conditions, nor a more horrid environment. The single owner has no management abilities whatever (That's what my position was supposed to be) he cannot communicate effectively neither verbal nor written, cannot accept criticism nor wishes the assistance required to create a successful team environment. – more...  When I, on behalf of the associate staff, insisted that the overtime wages that were being refused to us, be paid, I was terminated. – less

I usually worked second shift and it was usually very busy when I got in. I learned how to stock the coolers and how to do the daily duties that were required. The manager was very good and would offer me extra hours when available. My co-workers were very easygoing. The hardest part of the job was when people would come in and do beer runs. You never – more...  knew if they might try to rob us. I always enjoy the customers. – less

-7-Eleven apparently believes in a servant leadership culture and doing whats right, however it is quite the opposite. Managers do not treat their employees with respect, job descriptions get changed frequently to whatever they need you to do next and job security is a joke.

I used to love 7-Eleven and thought it was the best place in the world, we – more...  worked hard and played hard. In the most recent few years, they have taken all the fun out of the company. Morale is so low, but no one seems to care. Even the franchisee are not happy. – less

it was a fun place to work. you meet intresting people. the co workers where great. management didnt care about the workers at all.

7-Eleven was a fun great busy place also to work at. you deal with different types of customers. I learned alot of different things from my co workers and people i deal with like the customers. it was a good place to work at, busy place, do alot of different things, enjoyable part is the Slurpee and us the workers can drink as much as we want and take – more...  but when its not busy. – less

A normal work day for me is, daily cleaning tasks like, mopping, wiping counters, and cleaning coffee pots.I learned that patience helps me get through my shift. The management team is awesome, they are very helpful and stand-out leaders. My co-workers are also awesome, they are very easy to get along with, very hardworking, and always positive. The – more...  hardest part of this job is trying to please the many different personalities of the customers. The best thing about this job is the customers. – less
