Values focuses on great customer service
Senior Customer Service Associate/Manager on Duty (Former Employee), Hawkinsville, GA –
Pros: advancement, customer interaction
Cons: job security, salary, benefits
I would open the store, go to the bank to deposit cash, and I would provide excellent customer service. I learned how to supervise over other employees. I learned how to manage a store. Management would allow me to run the store when he or she was not on duty. The co-workers enjoyed working for this company. The hardest part of the job was the store – more...  was not making a profit and revenue was not increasing. The most enjoyable part of the job was being able to provide great customer service to individuals. – less

It was great working with customers and movies at the same time.
Clerk (Former Employee), Dalhart, TX –
I stocked and cleaned shelves for DVD's, helped customers, and assisted putting in DVD data.
The hardest part was when they closed their doors due to bankruptcy.
The most enjoyable was all my experiences there.

Movie Gallery was Wonderful
Store Manager (Former Employee), Kerrville, TX –
Pros: great place to work, free movie rentals, great benefits, great pay
Cons: went out of business
I loved working for Movie Gallery, which is obvious from my many years with the company. I would probably still be working for this wonderful company it had not gone under in 2007. It breaks my heart to think that the company I loved for so long is no longer a part of my life, but I appreciate the time I spent there.

I managed 8 other employees as – more...  the store manager. These people taught me that it is possible to care for the people you work with without compromising my role as their boss.

I loved my customers immensely; they were the best part of my job. Being able to communicate with my customers and help them choose a great form of entertainment was extremely fun for me. – less

Business Manager
Business Manager (Former Employee), Easley, SC –
I really enjoyed this job because of the amount of people I was able to meet. I learned a lot about business and management and my co-workers were beyond inspirational. The hardest part about this job was there was a lot of physical work, but for the most part it was a great job. I would still be working there if they hadn't gone under.

Movies
Store Clerk (Former Employee), McCalla, AL –
Pros: free rentals
Cons: not enough hours
I worked part-time and stocked shelves with new releases. I would check customers movies in and out. I learned that new releases come out every Tuesday. I got along good with my manager and co-workers. The hardest part of the job making room for all the new releases. The most of enjoyable part of the job was meeting new people.

Challenging position if it were still open
Store Manager (Former Employee), Metropolis, IL –
I was able to learn a lot about myself in this position. Especially how to utilize multi tasking and communication skills. The hardest and worst part of this job was being away from my children so much.
