Dolgen (Dollar General Store)
Ripoff proper labor practices not observed/overworked-underpaid

I first worked for this company 10 years ago and my work schedule that they had me do ended up putting me in the hostipal because of my work scedule of 80 hours a week with no time off.

I quit this company and now in 2003 I went back to work for them with the promise from the company that this would not happen again. I was a manager both times that I was with the company.

This last time I was told that I would be on salary and work a 45 hour week with time off. Well they were dishonest with me again. I was once again working 80 hours again. Was told several times that it was mandentory that I work the extra hours, but no extra money.

I think it is very unfair to work someone this way. Unrealistic working conditions made it impossible to meet the demands of my district manager and was under constant threat of being dismissed for not complying with these and other impossible conditions.

These and other practices throughout the company are common.in this way they maintain a lower percentage of bonus's and raises given to management.

At the present time there is a law suit against the company for overworking and underpaying their managers in Alabama.

Working conditions are not what they should be.in some stores they do not have a place for their employees to take there lunch breaks, and not enough employees to cover breaks.

I no longer work for this company and will NEVER AGAIN! The pay SUCKS! And so does the hours.
