Kwik Trip reviews

Greed is king at Kwik Trip. You only get ahead by showing upper management how greedy you are and what you're willing to sacrifice for that greed. If it doesn't turn a profit, it doesn't matter. Prisons have more windows than the support center. The entire place is as cheap as the junk Kwik Trip served. Employees are worked to the bone with little benefit. Flex time? Maybe after you've worked here forever. Seniority is king, they don't like new ideas. Cronyism is rabid, a lot of positions are given based on how far up the ladder you know. This monoculture will eventually eat away the company from the inside out.

Rapid growth over the last several years resulting in the original culture of KT dying away, increasingly replaced by typical corporate 'profits-over-people' attitude. Cult-like atmosphere at meetings that extol corporate virtues and exult the company. If you rise up into a store leadership role, expect poor-to-nonexistent work/life balance depending on your area. Retail is increasingly crunched for labor hours while work loads rise and burnout even amongst the rank and file is prevalent, yet profits have never been better (sound familiar?). District management is a mixed bag ranging from excellent to disinterested and willfully blind to conditions in the trenches.
