Reviews and Complaints

Store #205 has many issues that truly need to be looked into.. they just lost one of the best employees they have had in a long time.. one employee on night shift take breaks constantly.. and is late every shift.. has been warned and talked to by manager but doesn't change anything and getting good pay! 4 employees in that store only run register.. never get carts.. stock freight.. work the food truck.. make change runs.. the employee that quit did all of it every week and ran register and one of lowest paid employees.. the manager is absent alot.. and that's where the problem starts.. if she was doing her job maybe she would get good employees who would stick around instead if being took advantage of.. took for granted.. so unfair.. this store has had many complaints already made on Kendra Kirby.. the employee who has bad mouth.. attitude.. and always late and making good money.. it just sickens me to see unfair and poor managing.. this store #205 really needs to look into the managers and be resolved.. only one register open majority of the time.. and customers complaining..

I and a few other customers were doing out weekly shopping when we smelled something odd. We knew the smell was marijuana and then we saw a 6 foot guy come walking from in behind the store. And we found out he was a cashier for the company. A few of us called in and spoke with the general manager about the cashier smoking pot reeking of the smell in the store stumbling and laughing as we ask questions. The older lady who works in there said the GM won't do anything cause he's her pet. They recently fired the assistant in there cause she said something to him. He cussed the assistant out and told her she was a piece of [censored]. Someone needs to take a look into this I personally know of 15 customers whom are taking there business elsewhere. You shouldn't have ever of gotten rid of that assistant in there. Her smile her helpfulness her sincerity and her love of everything truly shows

I've never worked for a company so sneaky & conniving as Dollar generals. They treat their workers with no respect at all! Expect everything to be perfect in those stores & all the stuff they send in those small stores become impacted which they expect the salaried paying store mangers to over work themselves to get the work done! [censored] I'm over it

Manager is a joke. She stands and smoke every few minutes. Never does anything. Treats employees badly. The other manager, Bobbie isn't much better. She stands around on her phone all the time doing nothing complaining about customers. She tried hooking up with my brother when he saw her smoking a joint in the parking lot by her car. Stated she was just waiting to return to the aweful store. The store is trashed always. No good employees there and the ones that are hate it. Getting high together at work I assumed was against policy. Not there. Everyone needs to be tested and fired. It's a disgrace

This complaint is a general complaint to the CEO of Dollar General. I live in NE Ohio and all of the stores here in the area are a complete disaster! Seeing complaints from people in the other states it seems this is the norm for all his stores! There are metal carts and boxes all over the place, you cannot even get down the aisles. Products are always out and never stocked on the shelves! The worst part is that they expect their employees to stock shelves, unload the truck, and cashier all at the same time! I have heard they even expect workers to come in off the clock to complete tasks! These employees make low wages and are expected to work like dogs! The hours the manager gets each week to work with are ridiculous. It is no wonder nothing gets done and the stores look like a war zone! The bags they use are cheap and thin, many times I have had them break on me while loading my car! The CEO is cheap, cheap, cheap! Making millions off of low income people and treating his employees like garbage! I will be shopping elsewhere in the future and everyone will know what a greedy cheapskate this CEO is!

I went the last Sunday to your locations in Deltona, Debary Avenue to buy a news paper like as the last 4 weeks. Usually I found a short line, maybe 3 or 4 customer. But the last Sunday I noticed a couple that never seen before and also one old lady in a wheelchair. When the door was open the couple took 3 news paper each one, plus the lady in wheelchair also took 3 news paper. Normally every customer is going to take 1 each. When was my turn to pick it up it was the last one, behind me 3 o 4 more customer waiting. They ask to the employee the rule for that kind of merchandise and nobody respond. When I was in front the register to pay, I ask again and nothing, I talk with the lady about it because in my opinion is not nice, but she did not sdaid nothing.
I am a regular customer but honestly is not fair and against your bussiness that situation.

do you folks have anyone working for you with the name of Megan opplinger or Megan Belt or Megan Stimpel her real name is Megan Belt she uses these other names that's not on her birth certificate .if she doesn't work for you why is she behind the counter she's not someone I would trust. she's very rude .she's not awenest at all.so I would like to know if she work for the Dollar General or not if so I will take my money else where I shop there all the time tody I seen her behind the counter by the register 3-25-2019 at 9:49 am

Cashier pocketed my item . Never go back to that store. Mgr, rude. Bought two antibotics they were on reciept, I seen cashier put one in bag after everything else was baffed although he rang it up almost first, when placed in bag so " oh almost missed this" strange that he only put one in, then when I returned to Manager she said he placed in in bag that was two days later, the guy is a thief and I was not refunded the money for the item. I called the District Managers office and was to be contacted but nenver happened. I'm retired and don't need to be ripped off by Dollar General.
Item was Neosporin . $7.00

This store is completely disgusting! It was in such great shape last year or a little more. Y'all had certain employee's that went above and beyond to make myself and others actually want to come back! It's sad they are no longer there. Everytime I was there I saw the same few girls busting their [censored]. Excuse my language but it's true. I would also see two girls at more than one of the stores that weren't their own. I don't know why they left but they need to come back and fix this store and restore it back to what it was. It's so sad! We have switched to going to dollar tree or a different dollar store. The current employees you have there have no respect for anyone! They talk on their phones. And even use inappropriate language! Please do something about this! It at least check in on your store in athens georgia on cedar shoals rd. We had a wonderful rapport with the ladies that work there before it is so sad to see them gone in the store and such awful shape we were hoping when it moved from the location that was at last time it would stay nice but it hasn't so please do something about this!

Manager at this store is extremely rude and very condescending, especially to the elderly in this community. We are a small rural town and do love to Dollar Store being here. She has hired some good people to work her but in the past few months all of those good employees have quit due to her treatment of them as well and she has hired some that Are questionable at best and I personally feel probably couldn't pass a drug screen.
I myself have had to search for someone to check me out at the store on more than one occasion, I could hear talking and laughing in the store and had to walk around to see where they were and when I did, they acted put out that they had to come to the front if the store to work.
Another issue is that they take smoke breaks right in front of the sliding doors where customers walk in, I feel as if there should be a designated smoking area for the workers, maybe by the back of the store, usually there are only 2 people working at a time and they take their breaks at the same time, maybe that is why they stand by the front door in the chairs that are for sale.

I came to this dollar general right after work on 3-19-19. I rode my bike and as I approached the store I saw two big men sitting outside the building I didn't want to leave my bike without a lock nor bring attention to myself as a woman so I came through the store door breezeway area and gladly asked the manager lady (drawn on eyebrows manager) as she approached me "do you have a bike lock?" she started yelling at me after looking me up and down "you cant bring that bike in here!" I stated "all I want is a bike lock" a white male customer came to my defense and said "there is a few men outside the door thats why she there!" I told him "thank you!" then the cashier yells at me while all white customers stand in line "you can sit your backpack down here and"watch your attitude!" I let her know I don't have a problem and dont talk to me like that I spend a lot of money with dollar general and don't be fooled by my appearance my car just broke and I just came from work. She came at me once again repeating herself now what is strange I was already dealing with the manager now her cashier was on me to all over a dang bike lock>if I wasn't a black woman this would of played out totally different and I would of not been treated with respect... She stared at me as if I was someone not deserving to shop at the store... And whats weird this same manager worked at the waverly store before she came to the cedar street and she wonder why she had so many issues out there... People need to be careful on how they treat people because my demeanor doesn't hide the fact that I am human just like the next and if my bike would of got stolen or something would of happen outside the store dollar general would of been quick to point the finger elsewhere>happy they are paying so well to hire arrogant, selfless, racist, angry, confrontational, bitter women.
