long tiring days with stocking and managing
Assistant Manager (Current Employee) – Atlantic City, NJ – May 23, 2018
average position. Very long tiring days and a lot of change. managing urban city employees is sometimes tough while maintaining a store where manager does a lot of work.
A good place to work around

Nice place to work
Store Manager and Division Training Manager (Former Employee) – Memphis, TN – May 21, 2018
Would have been perfect if had a chance to move up, but in stores you are not viable unless you are in ST Louis. Local offices have a lot of politics for such a small office.
Pros
Simple Operation
Cons
Brought people in form outside
Excellent

Managers nice
Cons

Slow
Cashier (Former Employee) – Jackson, MI – May 19, 2018
The work at save a lot is slow but it’s a good job if you need something part time, i enjoyed working here but it just wasn’t for me. all of the managers were related and i wasn’t a fan
Pros
Break whenever you want
Cons

Working at save a lot is awful
Olive Hill - Cashier (Former Employee) – Olive Hill, KY – May 18, 2018
Your hours here are never the same, the will blame stuff on you that other workers did, and they will cut your hours to give to the other workers. The breaks are short if you get any at all and the management is awful.
Cons
Short breaks, Drama, no set hours
not productive
Cashier/Customer Service (Current Employee) – Harrodsburg, KY – May 18, 2018
This save a lot and poorly managed and not productive. The manager has favorites and you will never get hours. The managers also talks poorly about employees behind their back to other employees.
Pros
10 minute break
Cons
no raises, no benefits
Basic work place with some really awesome co workers
Cashier/Stocker/ fill in Book keeper (Former Employee) – SC – May 17, 2018
There is little good I can say about my time working for this company. Under paid for doing more than one job in the store, never allowed to advance. That being said i DID enjoy my coworkers.
Pros
small store close nit community
Cons
healthcare, no vacation time, pay
Great place to work
RETAIL MANAGER AND SUPERVISOR (Former Employee) – Cleveland, OH – May 16, 2018
A typical day at work was very fast pace. I gained a lot of management skills. Management was different at each store but fair overall. There was a Collaborate work place. The hardest part of the job was the long work hours. I most enjoyed meeting new people and the very fast pace makes the day go by fast.
It was okay
Cashier (Former Employee) – Allendale, MI – May 15, 2018
You had a lot of responsibilities as just a cashier, including cleaning and stocking shelves. They expect you to do everything while still making sure to take care of every customer ready to check out at any time. Overall it was okay.
not enjoyable, and bad people
Cashier/Customer Service (Former Employee) – Baltimore, MD – May 14, 2018
i didnt like nothing about save a lot, everyone was very disrespectful. i hate when i use to work for them but i had no other choice because i needed money.
Pros
bad
Cons
not fun
A job.
Cashier/Stocker (Former Employee) – Ypsilanti, MI – May 13, 2018
Your day usually starts with the store opening and as you work your way into the store, you condition and face the store. You have your own till which you count in the beginning and end of your shift... If its short your responsible..when i was there you had to work 6 hours for a break and more than 8 for a lunch.
Boring
HEAD CASHIER (Former Employee) – Riverview, FL – May 12, 2018
Extremely boring to work here. You hear the same 70s songs on repeat all day every day. Customers always think they are right. Would not recommend unless you enjoy tedious work.
Pros
Nothing
Cons
Everything
Under staffed over worked
Assistant Store Manager (Current Employee) – Columbus, OH – May 11, 2018
Expects perfection, understaffed and over worked. Only had one maybe two cashiers at a time with one manager. Now room for error, excuses of any kind not accepted. Very stressful.
Stressful and unfair with favoritism
Cashier and Dairy dept. manager (Former Employee) – Battle Creek, MI – May 11, 2018
I learned how to stock and run/order for the dairy department, along with general stock and register. Management was poor and showed favoritism towards others. The hardest part of the job was dealing with the backstabbing and harassing co-workers and the hostile environment it created.The best part of the job was creating connections, bonds, and friends with the customers.
Pros
I have experience in grocery/retail
Cons
Favoritsm and harassing co-workers and poor management
The job is ok
Shift Leader/Cashier (Former Employee) – Douglas, GA – May 10, 2018
This job was ok. I learned many things however this was just a stepping stone. The one thing I did like was the diversity and the support from management and my fellow team members.
Pros
Diversity
Cons
Pay
