Pros

weekly paycheck, cashed at store straightforward approach to tasks, i.e., 'do this and do it this way'

Cons

won't hire you full-time, even if you work there for years you're working with people of all different backgrounds, some with (alleged) criminal records management is very unfair in doling out hours management cuts hours the last week of each month management seems to forget they work with real people with real lives at my store, two people who didn't speak English AT ALL were given full-time shifts, and over two people in line for their hours

Pros

Bonus, profit sharing, health insurance and net some lifelong friends

Cons

6 day work week. 50 hours is an average week. Start at 6am/7am to 5pm. No help at all. Not allowed to schedule as much help like other departments. Dairy is one the worst departments in the company. For example the grocery dept work 5 days and gets weekends off. Maybe work 1 or 2 pallet a day. Dairy does about 6-10 pallets a day. Dept is not respected. Tops out being dept manager. While grocery can move up all the way to store manager. Most supervision are lazy and often no help. Few to the exception. We have no help is the most common phrase used. Go to the grocery dept if you want work at MB
