What I liked

I liked how nice and friendly everyone was no matter the situation. I was really loved at FoodLion and being there with all of my people really made me feel good. They were like my second family, my work family. In working there, I found two people who are now so close to me more than anyone else and I thank my job for giving me that opportunity.

What I wish was different

Nothing.

Advice

One piece of advice would be to always smile and make the most out of every situation that comes your way, it'll really pay off.

Store Stocker

June - August 2019 • North East, MD

What I liked

They had flexible hours that worked around my schedule. Everyone was very helpful as i was training there.

What I wish was different

I wish it paid more and i was able to work more hours even though it was just part time.

Advice

If you enjoy a laid back job that doesn't require much human interaction its an good job to have. They have good benefits for their full time workers and full time will pay more than part time. If you dont wish to work at a certain location they'll help you find another location best suited for you or even another place to work.

May 2022 • Walterboro, SC

What I liked

Interacting with the customers, the work atmosphere, and the flexible scheduling.

What I wish was different

The pay and the pay rate. I would've preferred to be paid weekly instead of biweekly but that's not my choice so.

Advice

Just go with the flow. If it's your first time cashiering, it can seem difficult at first but soon you'll learn that's it's not so bad. If you're good at counting and keeping track of money, this could be a great position for you.
