Pros
Since IGA stores are often independently run, they tend to foster a friendly, team-oriented, and personalized work environment. Employees frequently cite the positive atmosphere as a major advantage.
Cons
Compared to large, national corporate chains, some independently owned IGA stores may offer lower starting wages or less frequent/smaller raises due to the slimmer profit margins of a small business trying to compete.
