Dollar General Workers EXPOSE CEO's Lies 

Same,Walmart Jr.

It is the same here in the Chicago area.

Let’s unionize

@@amybrown3307 as a union member I agree

Competitive pay is absolutely delusional, when grocery store entry level positions pay more...

They literally did one in my town yesterday 3 locations here in Kentucky

They don’t care!! I been here since 2011, they don’t do anything expect the state and Federal minimum mandates! That’s why I would go through 20 employees every year.

Dollar General limits work so bad it's already similar to a walkout. They don't care. They'll just replace who they need to and get one or two people working it every day. I don't know how they aren't hemorrhaging money; my guess is that we're subsidizing it somehow. When I worked there, I had to run the register and stock at the same time. It's bullshit because you can't do both and stick to policy or do both effectively, yet the manager will tell you to do it anyway so that at least some stocking will get done. My manager wanted to give out more hours to stockers, but wasn't allowed those hours ever. The manager also spent a ton of time stocking, since it was just them and one other person there most of the time. This was years ago, and judging by what I've heard from family and friends that might go to a DG for something, it's actually gotten worse in my area. They've closed in a few places for a new one to be opened and built somewhere close to both, yet most of the stocking doesn't even get done now; most products are still on the cart how it came off the truck. I can only feel that they're doing something shady in this area, because I can't see how they'd make any money doing business this way. Either that or they somehow got state incentives that negate the loss somehow. I don't see them taking money they make elsewhere to keep these stores that can't get shelves stocked and product sold floating like they are.

Amen!! I am a manager at a DG in Alabama and I feel the same way. Plus they have unrealistic expectations when it comes to the amount of work they expect from their managers whom they pay salary and should pay them hourly wages, if they paid their managers HOURLY wages and gave their managers plenty of hours to use for staffing and actually paid ALL EMPLOYEES competitive wages, then it would be a better work environment to work in.

@@amybrown3307 And now they even fire the store manager over little things their employees (or customers) do. We have to post a sign encouraging customers to report fire violations to corporate. In my store it's the customers who keep leaving carts in front of the fire extinguisher (which is ironically right in front of the sign).

You literally just described the current DG I work at now and the DG I transferred from in another state along with a handful of stores I've helped out at in each state. As I'm reading your comment I start envisioning my store. Same exact thing. Oh and don't even get me started on the pinpads that dont work, the HHTs that are pieces of crap, the registers that randomly decide to restart themselves. Even our equipment is overworked!

same thing same conditions jackson mich.

Northern NY state here, and the DG stores near me are pretty much the same. And that’s just my observations as a customer. The one in my town has always had merchandise strewn everywhere and bare minimum staffing in the entire 15 years it’s been open. The place seems to have a new manager every 6 months or so, I’ve never seen anyone working there for longer than a year to 18 months.

So the CEO has the same level of responsibility as the entry level worker is what you’re saying?

​@@stangboy041376what does that have to do with my statement. If you're defending the collapse of working class america by responsibilities idk what to tell you.

@@johnsee7360 How much do you expect a CEO to earn? He/she is in charge of a multi billion dollar company

True that, they should offer pay raises or at least more hours

@@JasonNZ42 well how is the CEO and Shareholders make millions of dollars if they don’t exploit there workers?

@@user-lu6yg3vk9z greed, pure and simple. Unfortunately people who have to save money, and people don't know or care about the exploitation keep it continuing. It's a vicious cycle

Easily. They can afford good mattresses.

Lamborghinis talk. Mansions talk.

Because they are evil and have no conscience.

Because they live extravagant lives completely cut off from the people they employ they have literal servants and chefs..

Same way a criminal kills. These are criminals and cartel like people with a suit

Its tainted my friend.

That would simply shut the store down and restar my somewhere else.

They can do the math. What people don’t understand the only primary focus is bring profit to the shareholders not to benefit the employees.

They still haven't paid me my last check, either. And, they took away my wonderful .25 cent bonus for working there for a year. They watch the videos on Wednesday, every week to make sure our voids, overrides, cancelling an entire transaction is done properly. They tell you that 80 percent of shrink is due to employee theft, which is a lie. Shrink is due to the customer's who steal, every day.

@@carolynhester537 I specifically remember hearing that crap about shrink. I told my manager that whoever really thinks that can go to hell already.

Nah you're just lazy as fuck lol 2 days 😂😂😂

It means pay the least amount of money for market rate for the area.

It makes sense it’s about the bottom line. The primary focus for companies is bring value to shareholders.

It’s an entry level job dawg not an actual career tf are you expecting?

I'm not so sure they'd pay more. Our manager never could get more hours on the payroll to get stock put out before the next truck. If they wont do that now, they won't pay more for less later. They'll get crafty and make money on a deal somehow, but they will not pay more.

That's how it is in all but the biggest(richer areas) of stores. Same where I am.

Individual stakeholders 7.69% Mutual fund holders 52.49% Other institutional 40.75% When you mean regular folks, you mean "people" like JP Morgan or Vanguard group?

@@Lobos222 majority of mutual funds are owned by middle income people. Retirement plans like teachers, factory workers etc.

@@Chris-dm9eu Majority of mutual funds do now own a majority of stocks and bonds. This is like me saying that majority of people that own toothbrushes are poor. As if that was also an indication of who owned the stocks of those that produced them. There wouldnt be a correlation at all.

The one lady could increase her employment prospects ten fold by taking that shrapnel out her face.

They act like there are no exit signs and are locked in the building.

You find out what the job really entails only after you've taken it. Before that it's all roses and wine getting blown up your ass. Either that, or a friend or family member tells you, or you're a creeper that stays in the store all day so you know the ins and outs that way. Other than having that experience, you'd hear the exact same about DG as you do many other places; that it sucks but it's a job.

Yessir the people are never gonna learn that they need to learn a trade or go to college to get paid a living wave

"Unskilled jobs" is a myth. The workers are the life blood of society. High schoolers can only work a few hours.

@@niccage6375 there are low paying jobs and high paying jobs and this one is a low paying job! If you want to earn more money , quit this job and go apply to a higher paying job.

@@MiguelHernandez-rk7bg do you grow crops and raise your own cattle? I don't think so.

Can't wait until boomers are dead :)

If I still worked at a DG and that happened to me while ringing up, I'd match every price. I might get fired or face legal action, but if DG can't take responsibility, than I'll do my best to do so; and mine's to the customer.
