Good people to work with
Meat clerk (Former Employee), Philadelphia, PA –
Pros: worked with alot of good people
Cons: managment was not very good. wages were horrible.
I enjoyed working with the people that were there and the customers that shopped at the store. The managment was not good at all and the wages were worse. I did learn alot about the business and the job was easy. The hardest part was dealing with the peopl that did not want to work but it was enjoyable most days.

Dynamic environment, fast paced and customer oriented
Cashier (Current Employee), Ottawa –
I've learnt that the customer's experience is very important. I've improved my skills with different cultures and backgrounds. I've learnt to process orders in a timely fashion. I like to help customers with finding products whenever I'm on the floor and placing items back or in other words, overstock.

Coworkers made it fun
Front End Cashier (Former Employee), Belleville, NJ –
Pros: automatically in the union when you are hired
Cons: short breaks
I could tell some of the managers did not like me. Honestly I do not know why, I was always friendly. There were quite a few people who were very rude with one another. I had good days and bad days.
