Q&A With Dollar General Employees

Preference of manager

It’s fine

Hard work and family oriented

Awful. Everyone talking about everyone else and their life stories. i had one co-worker throw a package of hamburger that had been sitting out in a shelf for a few days at me and hit the back of my leg. had co-workers tell customers i need to smoke pot like all my co-workers and customers do.

They seem ok and affordable alot better then alot of others I have saw offer but I just signed up for it a few weeks ago but it won't be affected until January 1st. So I will let you know later how good it is or isnt

It's good but could be better

There are none

The company outings are usually in the amusement park we go in with do are things we get together a certain time on a designated place for food the managers and supervisor ask you how you're doing and they will only have a meaningful conversation with does that relate the most.

What is a valuable sales associate asset and why do you feel that is an asset you possess

Depends on the hiring manager

Outgoing, friendly, helpful, and a willingness to talk with the customers to build a trusting and comfortable feeling each time they visit the store.

Anyone who can show up and get suckered into a job. It was very diverse though.

Dollar General doesn’t have to worry about lay offs. Dollar General has an astonishing high turn over rate, like call center high turn over rate. People come and go out of this company like revolving doors and I would know because I’m a current employees. In 9 months, we’ve gone through 2 assistant managers, 3 keyholders, and I don’t know how many cashiers. People obviously feel under valued here at Dollar general, so dollar generals “real” culture/environment is a high turn over rate with a horrible work environment.

People just quit, Dollar General has an extremely high turnover rate which is not a positive asset at all.

there were no lay offs can not keep enough sales associates hired

At the distribution center all day learned is computer things they don't learn how to treat the employees or what is you really means to be a supervisor or manager

Don’t believe there is one in pkace

You need to call your manager letting them know your sick and cant come in and try to find someone els to work your shift

It depends on the manager if the manager is good she or he hire good if the manager is not good they usually hire people that are young that don't have any good work ethics they either don't show up the first day or they work one or two days and then they don't show up at all or they call out the the second day they've been hired they need to hire people that are older they need to give their employees more money to work when you do that you can get good people to work there but if you don't give them good resources they're not going to work our opportunities

At that, the DC will don't know how to answer that that information is not shared with employees

The pay is lower than it should be considering the mass amount of work asked of its employees. They also pay as little as they have to despite competitors offering hire pay.

Well put it like this there's a saying going around our store about employees being recycled because there's a high turnover rate . Meaning a person can be there one day and the next week they are gone.

What hours can you work Can you run a register Can you lift heavy boxes

I didn't have anything difficult to answer

As long as you wear clothes that are clean and fit you, you would be ok

I have no idea.

It was great when I worked there. I left seven years ago.

Instantly there's always feedback positive negative coaching reassuring you ask for thou
