Not enough Budget to support sufficient Labor during any Given shift.

The ast.Manager was never happy with what I done . she was always on phone talking .she picked on me about everything.She left a buggy full of stuff from a customer one night I put it up.

I enjoyed working here for the most part. Customers were a joy to get to know and everything fell into place once you had a routine.

Pleasant atmosphere. Fun place to work. We all worked together as a team

highly engaging, very fast paced and always something to do.

It was for the most part what I expected it to be. I didn't like the fact that managers and supervisors were risking their lives to catch thieves that didn't care one way or the other if they went to jail or were caught stealing!

This is a good place to work. Benefits are good and most of the management is fair and knowledgeable.

This is a fun job being that its not a huge store. not much security so they are always robbed. but i enjoyed interacting with the customers to make the day go by.

The company asks you to commute to a town 30 minutes away because they believe that employees that live and work in the same community are more prone to theft. The pay was not enough to cover gas costs and live on at the same time. Management was full of themselves and intentionally threw their authority around to make themselves look important. They – more... were more concerned with their own authority than their mangement skills. – less

I like working here but I don't like the management it a good plce to work but it nt for me

learned how to use a register and learn how stocking work in a big building .

Opening the store for 8am and having everything ready for the day. Customers are important, Management was very cool and good to get along with co-workers was also good workers. Unloading the truck was the hardest part of the job. Helping customers

A day at family dollar is like no other place I have ever worked at. But it is an experience I will never forget.

They work their managers to the ground, mandatory 6 day work weeks, at least 2 open to closes a week. No extra pay if you are required to cover a call out or for holidays, but they will dock you pay if you take an extra vacation day. Great for people who are starting out as managers, if you have experience it's most likely a step-down. I loved my DM, – more... if you try to reach any one higher than that good luck. – less

Basically I found out hoe to be a solid successful manager and how to better handle money.

Nice place to work.
The customers in the area were very nice.
Clean Store.

A typical day at FD would start out opening the store and working 5-8 hours alone until the cashier came in for their shift. I would work 13 hours without an actual break. I learned how to run a store on my own, due to the lack of knowledge in the company on how to train a person. The SM and DM were very unhelpful when it came to any questions and concerns – more... about lack of security in the store (i.e no cameras/dvr system, and safe being kept upfront) My co-workers (i.e cashiers) were great to work with, very fast learners, and always completed tasks on time. The vendors were also very kind to work with, I always looked forward to monday and wednesday deliveries and truck days. The hardest part would have to be that the SM would change the schedule everyday according to her personal schedule. Also that I would never be able to clock out for a lunch for the last 4-6months of working there. Also, not getting paid enough for the work being done. The most enjoyable part would have to be the friendly customers that I saw day to day working there. I created relationships with every individual customer. – less

I haven't actually worked yet but I will be around June 17th. So far the workers and the management are outgoing and friendly.
