Cashier (Former Employee) – St. Paul, AB – 4 December 2017
typical day at work long hours and overtime sometimes, learned to work with stuff for legal aged people, how to put money away in a safe, to keep work area clean, hardest part of the job was to travel to school out of town and then back in time for work but now done school, the most enjoyable was restocking had to keep track dates on items and how much stock we had.
Pros
discounts on food

Sales Associate (Former Employee) – Calgary, AB – 3 December 2017
i had good hours, equlity, and was a busy place to work.
however when i had requested to have a second person work with me overnight as i had my life threatened my boss told me that she would have another person hired and never followed through with it. I had decided to quit after that as i felt my security did not matter to my boss.

Horrible
Assistant Manager (Former Employee) – Prince George, BC – 9 November 2017
Constantly have to stay longer than scheduled without pay, horrible management, customers are just as rude as coworkers. Often blamed by entire staff for how horrible the condition of the store is instead of picking up a broom to try and help out.
Pros
Free slushies?
Cons
Degrading

Senior Sales Associate and Supervisor (Former Employee) – Vernon, BC – 6 November 2017
Loved working for this company, was able to move up in position fairly easily. As long as you worked hard you could get the the place you decided you wanted to be.
needs improvement
Store Clerk (Current Employee) – Edmonton, AB – 5 November 2017
overall, it was not bad. I made some good friends, but the wage is low and the management could improve. one thing I like about working at 7 eleven is that I learned a lot about work ethic, and the importance of punctuality.
Good staff, but cant work around hours
Sales Associate (Current Employee) – Nanaimo, BC – 1 November 2017
711 is a great starting job and is a very fast paced community but the management doesnt really listen and its hard to get proper scheduling and proper notification if your shift changes but all in all fun place to start.
Pros
Free coffee/slurpees
Cons
Nonconsistant hours

Long Days
Eastview 7 eleven
Sales Associate (Former Employee) – Red Deer, AB – 30 October 2017
I wouldn't work there if I were you or until there's new management. The store is managed poorly, there is no communication between management and staff. I would never treat any of my employees the way I and others are treated from yelling to write ups for no reason. I've been in retail for 10 years + and I've never seen a store like this one. Very unprofessional. Apply with caution!!!!!! Eastview 7 eleven only.
Pros
Customers are very nice
Cons
Poorly managed, no communication.
Its a very fun place to work with good management

Assistant Store Leader (Current Employee) – Alberta and British Columbia – 23 October 2017
- more challenging than it looks
- Always something to do, never bored
- Learned how to deal with difficult customers and meet customer demands
- Management is sometimes challenging, but overall management is good at most locations
- As with any job, there will always be the people that are difficult to handle but if you have the ability to leave issues at the door its quite enjoyable
- Hardest part of the job is dealing with upset customers
- Most enjoyable about the job is getting to know your 'regulars' and making connections every day

Sales Associate (Former Employee) – Toronto, ON – 17 October 2017
An employee needs to meet minimum standards and work ethics to continue to be employed at Seven11. Employees are considered to be a part of the team that produce success and profit and more customers. They aptly call employees as sales associate.
