How employees describe working at KMart
Easy to shop there reasonably priced & cheap & disposable if I want something for a short time
At first it was great but as time went on, there seemed to be a unbalanced workload amongst employees, it's very manager dependant, if the manager is great your fine but if not; you might get extra or an unfair amount of work.
