Pros

Easy and Predictable. You know what to expect day to day from the job. Management seems to be fairly laid back as long as you are getting the work done in the time that they give you. You get to meet a lot of different people in the grocery store.

Cons

No benefits for working part-time. Your basically just like another customer to them. NO discounts on any of the merchandise they have to offer.

Pros

They (management) can be reasonable at times, such as with your breaks and scheduling.

Cons

My current management isn't giving me enough hours to be even decently sustainable, yet they have open-shifts available that they could assign to anyone, so why not give those hours to people who are severely underscheduled? If you want your workers to work for you, treat them right and compensate them fairly, and stop expecting them to come in everytime you text them just because someone else called out, maybe you need to give the people who constantly call out less hours because they aren't being reliable, and you need to give more hours to the people who do come to work and get things done, because they've proven to be reliable and willing to come in on their assigned days.
