Great teamwork and friendly workplace
Store Sales Manager (Former Employee), Boiling Spgs, SC – February 19, 2013
Pros: customers, team
Cons: there aren't any cons about this company
A typical day at the company as a manager, is opening and sometimes closing the store,inventory, and cash handling procedures. The store was to be opened at 5:30 am every morning. The highlight of my day was the customers that came in the store regulars or not I made sure they had a smile on their face before they left our store.

Too much politics and always changing; not enough training
Store Manager (Former Employee), Gainesville, FL – November 19, 2012
Pros: benefits
Cons: working 7 days a week for seven months.
Daily reconciliation, deposits, inventory, ordering, vendors.
I learned that no matter the job you do it was never enough.
Management- my supervisor put me in a store with problems and left me with it.
Had good employees who did their jobs and worked together as a team
The hardest part of the job was a constant change in policies.
The most enjoyable – more... for me was increasing my customer base. – less

A typical day at The Pantry was ok. I've learned alot here because this was my first job upon graduating high school. The management is great and friendly. The co workers where great to get along with and help eachother out. The hardest part of the job was serving a busy line of customers during lunch hour.The most enjoyable part of the job was getting – more... to know the customers. – less

Pros: weekly direct deposit paycheck
Assisted customers, and performed light custodial duties. I also restocked the store as needed. The hardest part was not being compensated to train or shift lead. There also where security issues. Otherwise the job was enjoyable.

The Pantry aka "Kangaroo" is really committed to servicing the customers and community. They are active in the ongoing troubles and celebrations of the local community life by providing food sales and charities to soldiers and their families, Christmas gifts and food on Thanksgiving, car washes, bake sales, as well as low prices and open availability – more... and conveniency for their customers. It was truly a joy interacting with customers everyday! – less

Fun workplace, Nice enviornment for meeting people.
Customer Service Rep (Former Employee), Greensboro, NC – May 17, 2012
Cons: no breaks
A typical day at The Pantry Inc. was mostly lonely other than the customers coming in and out, I was the only cashier there for 8 hours or more, you couldnt sit down at all and your only break was when there were no customers. I learned how to handle customer problems and i also grew great bonds with a few loyal customers. I learned how to be independent – more... and helpful. Management varied, due to the fact that that i had 3 different ones. My first two were alright they did really well but i didnt really get to know the last one. My co-workers were cool we all got along really well. The hardest part of the job was working third shift and having to walk back and forth and gather up items to sell because we used a window late at night, and also having to keep your eye on all the people that came in and out of the store when i worked first and second shift, especially when i was alone. The most enjoyable part was the customers, conversating with them, uplifting some, helping some, up selling ittems to a few, and getting to know the loyal ones. – less

Not A Job for a person with a family
Assistant Manager (Former Employee), Durham, NC – April 17, 2012
The pantry was an okay job for me to get off my feet. The customers that I handled were all great, but the hours I had to work did not work with my schedule and the managers would not work with me.

A unique experience
Manager (Former Employee), Gainesville, Fl – November 14, 2011
Pros: decent pay, great learning experience, great bonuses when you get them
Cons: termendously long hours
Good company to work for, only issue is you will end up with very little home life. Their pay scale is great. Being a manager requires quite a bit of responsibility. Training when given is great and can be applied to other positions in other fields.
