Dollar General Staff Quit en Masse over Long Hours and Low Pay

Entire staff at a Dollar General store in Wisconsin quit over issues like 7-day work weeks, lack of appreciation and low pay

Manager said the "last straw" was the company's policy of throwing away still-usable items rather than donating them

Manager was working 7 days a week for months since she couldn't schedule more paid hours for other employees

Store was closed for only 3 hours before Dollar General reopened it, likely with staff from other locations

Before the mass resignation, Dollar General was already hiring due to being understaffed
