Fun and easy job
Associate (Former Employee), Auburn, NY – June 18, 2013
Pros: fun people
Cons: backaches
Long hours but worth it. I learned a lot. Like stocking, freight, and dealing with the money at the end of the night. My co-workers were very cool and fun. Hardest part was standing for 8+ hours.

Good job for students
Cashier, Customer Service, Freight, Store Clean (Former Employee), Whitehall Township, PA – June 18, 2013
The company itself is not bad, the pay is not good. It just depends on the individual store and who is managing it. The location that I worked in had a very hard working Store Manager who did her best to keep the store in order and to give her employees as many hours as possible. After she got sick and passed they got a new manager, who did not seem – more... to care and going into that store now...it is always a mess. Even at 10:00 am. – less

Good people to work with, not so good people to work for.
Assistant Manager (Former Employee), Bowling Green, KY – June 18, 2013
Pros: good co-workers
Cons: bad upper management
The upper management was always talking down the other and making us change our whole store every other week because they didn't like what the other made us do. They were all very unorganized and rude people.

We were made to work with no breaks or lunches because either the schedule wouldn't allow coverage or we just didn't have the people available – more... to work.

We had very good customer base and our fellow employees were like family. – less

Good for a first job
Cashier/Customer Service/Stocker/Truck Unloader (Current Employee), Robbinsdale, MN – June 17, 2013
Pros: good hard work that keeps you on your feet
Cons: do not get paid enough. been there almost 5 years with a raise every year and only make $8.00
A typical day of work includes cashiering, maintaining the front of the store, cleaning windows, blowing up mylar balloons, assisting customers finding product, stocking, and always moving around. I have learned great patience and being very fast on register. The hardest part of the job can be the rude customers, the sometimes lack of supplies, and – more... working so hard for minimum pay. I enjoy the common customer that comes in often who you build good relationships with. I also enjoy helping customers find what they need. – less

ungreatful place to work
Assistant Store Manager (Former Employee), Carlsbad, NM – June 13, 2013
you work hard with no respect.
they won't give a person the hours that want the work, but hire more people so they don't have to pay the beafits.
the person who runs the store has a store of her own and is always there, not where she should be( Dollar Tree) so your always covering for her

Fast paced fun place to work
Assistant Store Manager (Former Employee), Round Lake Beach, IL – June 13, 2013
Pros: fast paced, worked with good people
Cons: unloading the truck
On a typical you work with various customers some will ask for your help most know what they came in for. Customers are pretty knowledgable about the product and will sometimes ask for new items making the day fun. I learned that off brand cleaning products work better that the more expensive name brand. My coworkers were great people to work with we – more... all got along wonderfully. The hardest part of the job was unloading the trucks. – less
