@kctv5: Missouri is suing Dollar General, accusing the company of charging customers more at the register than the listed price on the shelves. One retail expert says it may not be a business strategy, but rather the result of understaffing. #fyp #kctv #news #lawsuit #dollargeneral

They start employees at $9.50 and hour here. The stores are a mess and they can't keep employees. Most of the time there is only one employee to handle customers, stock, and clean.

As a very recent ex employee, price changes are sent to us every single week on tuesdays. It’s insane how much they change prices

I drove for Dollar General for 2 years out of their Fulton, MO distribution center. And I can tell you right now. Understaffed stores are done by design. Store managers aren't given enough hours to fully staff the store. I knew store managers that were working 80 to 90 hours a week. Just because they didn't have enough hours available to have employees on the floor.

Change prices to try and make the deals work the way their supposed too, get flagged by loss prevention. Got grilled.

not changing prices cause you won't hire enough people to keep up with price changes IS a corporate strategy 🤦‍♀️

The lines are insane they have four self check outs all closed and then one worker about the store that does come out when they notice you up there but it gets out of control real fast

This has been going on for years. Other states have already proven that it is indeed an intentional corporate strategy

The reason why they’re having staff shortages is because Dollar General refuses to pay their employees a reasonable paycheck.

nah bc Dollar General is just as expensive as any other store now, why would staff be the issue? staff doesn't choose pricing...

Dollar General has ALWAYS been high it’s a rip off and markets itself as being less when it’s always been overpriced. Glorified convenience store is all it is. Stay away from them
