Good Employer
Generous compensation for your work. Company respects workers and strives to maintain a positive work environment. Your work day goes by very quickly in the busier, fast-paced stores.
ProsFree beverages. Allowed to get a quick snack on the clock.
Consno sit down or punch out breaks. Management ranges from excellent to sub par depending on location

Employee that was overworked and not appreciated |
Robertsdale, AL | Jul 6, 2021
Average pay but you earn it. No advancement if your not in the inner circle instead of qualifications
No appreciation for workers from Management. No advancement if your not liked and fit the mold of being able to be brainwashed from upper Management. Different rules for each employee. Overtime only allowed when they need it or you work in deli. Turn over rate is around 70% or higher. Chaotic work environment is everyday. BS is the motto from upper Management who tells you what you want to hear but never truly listens to what and how you feel as an employee. There is NO OPEN DOOR POLICY from upper Management when you ask to speak to some of them they act like what do you want now. I have never felt like I was listened to by Management. Corporate needs to open their eyes to the real issues or it could be devastating with their rules and inability to hire quality people and when they do happen to hire them they get let go after 3 tardies.
Oh let's not forget employee parking across road from store in Robertsdale, AL with a suppose to be crosswalk with incomplete crosswalk (roadway) markings with no crosswalk sign.
Think twice before working here sometimes less is more. RUN!
ProsAverage Pay, Benefits, Most Co-Worker's made day go by faster
ConsManagement, Favoritism, Overworked, No Advancement if Management doesn't like you and they can't control you, No overtime only when shorthanded or deli, No appreciation

Pay draws people in, Terrible policies and management draw people away
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.
ProsPay
ConsEverything, dont work here...no breaks, no bereavement, no advancement, no discounts, not “tolerating” real emergencies, will not keep you safe from harassing guests, will write you up over their own mistakes, very strict and rigid policies.

Cut Throat Management
There is very little flexibility and strict enforcement of employee behavior. You have to stand for lunch and are only given just a few minutes to eat, no employee discount and there are no real benefits to employee company culture. Everything is very strict and does not have the employee in mind.

Bucees
I enjoyed my time working at bucees. I was sad to leave, but had to move. Great place to work if you love to work and stay busy. I am a workaholic so it was perfect for me at the time.

Anywhere but here
On the outside it looks fun to work for this company, but nothing could be further from the truth. The managers do not care about the employees. All that matters is that they get their yearly bonuses. You will get written up if you’re even a minute late. A friend of mine got into a car accident on the way to work, called and informed the manager on duty of the situation and was still written up.. If you have a choice do NOT work here. Money is good but not worth it

good summer job
pay is good but company uses that to their advantage almost as if they hang it over your head. breaks are 10 minutes out of a 8 hour shift and you can never sit down. Also their is no levels of discipline, 1 minute late and i do mean 1 minute your written up or fired, and any food that is not paid for ex: a fry that fell on the counter in the deli, your fired for. people are nice but talking also can get you in trouble.
Prosdecent pay
Consstricter than normal envirornment, barely any breaks

Long work and very little appreciation
Clock in on time, run to work station, bust your butt, one 15 minute lunch break that you must stand through, no chairs, no sitting, clean and restock while helping customers, clock out and check schedule to make sure hours are still the same for tomorrow because management won't tell you if it has. I learned by watching how not to manage people. The co-workers were good people. The hardest part of the job was dealing with managers who thought that they were above the rules. The most enjoyable part was the small 15 minute break and leaving at the end of the day.
ProsHigher pay than normal, co-workers
ConsWeird hours, bad management

Great part time job with friendly staff
Great for part time job, not for a career unless you are a manager. I recommend eating before you get there because there is only one very short lunch break.
