Dollar General Environment Employee Reviews

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

Its very positive i have great customers that see my motive and they give me thank you cards all the time.

The people's and just the environment

I love working for dollar general and I love working with my customers

We keep it clean, and organized.

Leaving for home at the end of the shift

Relaxed enviroment and everyone works well together

Getting a break but always forced to work threw breaks cause I am only one here.

Seeing our customers come in happy and talkative and all the coworkers that are working there are very helpful with the customers and we work as a team

I think for the most part everyone comes in in a good mood and tries to have a good day and be fair with everyone including customers. Each team member is a hard worker. Although I think there should be store meetings and a more General team understanding of how the store is operating

the wonderful energy the team together brings and our wonderful customers

The customers and 2 coworkers are the only thing that keep me at work. The 2 good workees i work with would get a 9 on your scale but the reat get 3 or less.

Our customers coming in and good feedback

The most positive things is my employees not what the company does

Review from Sales Dept

Other coworkers who weren't managers or the boss of my location, they were really cool people who I felt free speaking around and enjoyed talking with. They definitely made the day easier, some regulars at the store were amazing as well, really unique people.

The people are good and most customers

The night crew is the best

I love the customers and the people i work with

Review from Sales Dept

We all get along very well and are supportive of each other

Workers worker workers workers workers

There's an understanding that we are all struggling together, which is nice. Everyone tends to be nice to each other

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Better training and more teamwork

More family culture needs to be happening

Drop the "woke" stupidity. DEI is a crutch for the lame. This company goes beyond lame.

The district manager the store manager that store needs a whole need team

Everything to do with store hours given.... They are looking their store managers

Just more workers and more workers to spread work load.

STOP BUILDING STORES! STAFF THE ONES YOU HAVE AND TAKE CARE OF THE EMPLOYEES YOU HAVE. Dg has been broken for years and the dm would always say...it will get better. They honestly should take a better look at themselves as a company!

No clue and no clue

Mrs. Juanita Jones needs to change. She is a very disrespectful individual who talks down to people tries to manipulate everyine and everything. She puts us in danger by chasing and pepper spraying people. She accuses customers of stealing based off of how they look. Etc

Just put first things first ,customers, they come for product not empty shelves, give managers more hours so they can have employees in store to get products out.

Getting paid. I haven't received my pay check

If you didnt get along with one if the mangers then the whole store would be against you

they’re very outdated they need a upda

Hire more staff or back off on the expectations with very limited staff

Close on holiday not just one day a year

More hours, listen to the employees

The gm needs to take back or the store. And start doing her job.

Less hourky reactions to day to day duties. Too much miro managing !

Review from Sales Dept

The store manager needs to be replaced along with the DM who is protecting her from what she has done. With child labor laws being violated

Stop pushing propaganda, and give employees a discount more than whenever you feel like it.
