Circle K – Worked there for almost a year or so and hated just about every second of it. No breaks was a big one, plus the store getting robbed every other night (worked night shifts, in the ghetto) was generally pretty scary.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Less generic corporate garbage, and more focus on employee well-being.

What did you like most about the interview process?

Got a call and showed up, couldn't have been easier.

What are some of the best things about your team?

Most of my coworkers were pretty great. One not so much but nobody liked her even most regular customers. Everyone was alright at least.

What makes you most happy at work?

Not getting robbed for a night and having few enough customers so there's time to do the million other things nobody on day shift wants to do.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Don't know about bureaucratic stuff but the manager at my store was trash. Didn't know what she was doing in the slightest even after having been there 6 months no clue how she even got hired. Nice person, terrible manager.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Paid minimum wage and strongly discouraged from OT. amount of work that needed to be done along with hazards taken (ie guns getting pointed at you) wasn't worth the pay by a long shot. Plus being scheduled 39 hours to avoid being actual full time and getting benefits.
