Pros

nope, only pro is the pay.

Cons

Please read carefully before considering a position there. As I have a limited number of characters please understand that Buc-ees as a company invest in bodies and not people. Meaning they are a revolving door for their staff. Their pay is THE ONLY pro. I have numerous stories on how poorly they treat their staff and it all falls within the scope of what is legal since they exploit every legal loophole and exploit their workers in the process. People have been let go due to their own mistakes, they do not care about any extenuating circumstances such as family emergencies, broken down vehicles, or even personal injuries. The company does not offer bereavement, and offers absolutely no breaks. The only thing they offer is a “moment” where you have 5 minutes to eat, it starts the moment you walk away and you cannot sit, must stand while eating at a designated cocktail table. If you value your health, your personal sanity, and your family know that they will not prioritize or help you. Please spread awareness and warn others, my hope is if they lose enough staff they will have to change their policies. You deserve better.

Pros

Pay. For my department, a regular schedule. OT opportunities. Double pay holidays.

Cons

Management has serious favoritism. They pressure you to pick up the slack of the ones who are lazy or work like sloths. A position hurting you? They don’t care. It’s SO easy to get fired. 3 strikes you’re out. Don’t forget to clock in or out including lunch, strike. Don’t be one min late. Strike. Don’t have car issues. Strike. Don’t get sick. Strike. Going to call in? Make sure it’s more than 1 hour before your shift If not, strike. Don’t say something wrong, instant fire. So many great people and hard workers get fired because they missed clocking in/out. People get distracted or forget and jump right into work. No big deal right? Wrong with this company. How dare you forget?! You get 3 weeks vacation sure, but ever get sick? PTO gets used for that. Someone says something that was interpreted wrong fired. Definitely can’t count on keeping a job here. Better have a plan B ready because any day could be your day. Training? Ha! More liked throw you into it and figure it out.
