The Texan Stores

Management plays favorites, certain employees are allowed to do whatever they want whenever they want without repercussions. To much drama from management and they don’t care about anyone as a person. Very difficult store to work in and they love to give busywork every shift to make employees look busy. This place has entirely drained any and all joy from my life. Only allow 1 unpaid 15 minute break for a 8 hour shift and the pay is garbage. To little staff for all the work they want done and employees are forced to come in even in bad weather, while other are constantly late or calling out for being “sick” just to show up as a customer in the middle of their shift. There are a few employees that are cool to work with and make the shift go faster but not many. 

Whilst employed at the Texan Stores, I found that the people I was working alongside with as well as the Corporate Managers that would appear often were kind and helpful; however, at times, there was too much drama surrounding the workplace. This came from the store management and corporate, usually, it was about each other. Work was usually met with unnecessary demands that both came out to be a waste of time and effort because realistically a truck stop customer could care less about which way a pecan pie was facing in a basket. All that usually occurred outside my actual position was being assigned busy work to make it seem like we were all busier than what was occurring. All in all, kind of a funny place to work. If you don't mind the drama, and like to have some gossip to listen to... It's a pretty fun place.

Good workers are expected to pick up the slack for understaffed or bad staff situations, job security depends more on who you are friends with versus your work ethic, several times a week, there was 2 staff to run the entire store overnight and prepare breakfast items for the morning, staff is expected to perform and train new staff on task they have not been trained to perform, management is not available most nights, owner watches cameras and constantly complains, management is fine with making an excessive amount of dinner food and thowing it away, but complain when any amount of breakfast food must be thrown away 

What is the best part of working at the company?

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
This company has a couple of horrible regional managers that are very condescending and rude and will never be satisfied with performance.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Unfair culture and stressful work environment 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Work to many hours and not enough pay for time.

I worked for this company for a year and a half and it took a year and me fighting tooth and nail to get a promotion at all. Poor leadership with very little direction to give besides work hard and stay busy. Upper management is out of touch with employees. They say they care and can work with people and there availability but they walk back on there word. No employee discounts and the insurance isn't worth it if you have any dependents. 

Management has poor communication and unnecessary drama between workers. Working here was alright at first but over time it gets draining and sort of sucks the life out of you. Management gave the most stupid rules that made absolutely no sense at times. They hate to see co-workers getting along and want you to act busy all the time. They will fire you without telling you why. It is mostly ran by women, and they of course love drama. Co-workers were cool until they all quit or got fired.

Hostile work environment. Management not aware of what is being done. Never enough employees for the amount of work that needs to be done daily. One day company policy will be enforced and other days it is ignored. Favoritism happens way to much. One week they honor schedule request and the next your hours are cut because of your schedule request.

It’s a clean gas station the principal is there I think there may be issues with corporate that end up stressing managers causing high turn over but for the unexpecting employee everything is pretty laid out there isn’t much to do so everyone is pretty diligent about what they have to do. Some inconsistency issues but I find the pros to outweigh the cons if you are an honest worker.

Do Not Recommend. No clear communication, this company will waste your time and when they make a mistake you will be the one to blame to cover themselves. I believe it could be a good company when they decide to take a look at who is running the stores (Office Personnel). This could be why their is such an issue with staffing... Proceed With Caution!!
