Avantages
Discount on alcohol and gaining knowledge of wine, spirits, cigars, ect. Buying a "mystery box", basically cases of beer that contained a broken bottle were put into a toy bin and we were aloud to make out own box by shoving all we could fit into it and paying a little bit of money.
Inconvénients
Where do I begin? Since the very first day the management team had high expectations of us, it was a brand new store opening and the associates helped build it from the inside. We were expected to have all the knowledge in the world about everything in the store from a single wine class. Every associate was new to the team, management was pulled from other stores to work here. We were poorly trained as a group and they demanded the highest of customer service and knowledge to keep their "reputation". They over hired leaving us at 4-12 hours a week amongst receiving bi-weekly pay, even as people left for better things and the seasonal associates were let go the hours stayed the same. I was told if we worked hard we would receive advancements, not only did I not receive any advancement and no hours. What I got was a thing they called an "ACE Award" this is fine and dandy if this acknowledgement meant something better but no it did not I received a gold badge and some pin, they treated us as children. I had to take manager responsibilities as the managers were never found when needed. One of the assistant managers I was close with informed me they made him sign a waver so he waived his ability for health insurance and so forth to get 30+ hours a week. If you want low hours and to be worked hard for low pay then choose BevMo.
