I am a former employee of this Dollar General . Countless of customers have complained about prices being wrong all throughout the store, as well as the cleanliness of the store.. dust and trash. As a cashier, I cannot do any returns or exchanges without a key carrier, which is my assistant manager or coworker.. Who leaves during their break so if anything were to happen while he's gone, I'm stuck with a line full of customers. Apparently, everyone can have their phones out and headphones in, but I the cashier cannot. Where does the policy say that?
I informed my manager that my son is autistic, and my mother is sick and I take care of both of them, I told her that when I got hired because I just moved back to Virginia.
I close almost every shift I work getting out at 9:30 or 9:45 PM, and I'm not allowed to be on my phone or have a key to do simple transactions. They will hire you without giving you any proper training or information. They will terminate you without giving you any warnings or written warnings. But have you working six shifts and closing each night.. your boss will put you on schedule for Friday at 8 AM after her being notified that you have to bring your son to school at 9 AM in the morning. She will make you work six days straight and then call you on your one day off to ask if you can work.
I gave them hours in advance if I have to call out which is policy. But I was terminated for " Pattern of calling out" well, the only (2) days I've called out were when I got a flat tire, and when I did not have a babysitter. (NO write up or warning) Besides those days, I worked every shift to closing.. So funny, customers have said I've been the best thing at this place in a while. I already know the regulars and their cigarettes and items. They talk about the store a lot. You can't keep five employees because your manager keeps letting them go.. so you have me working six shifts every week closing because you don't have enough employees. Good luck finding coverage now!
Avoid this place and save your $$$. They never want to give you your $5 off coupon anyway. read more
