Former Family Dollar manager Heather Berry was one of the two employees who quit working at the store after the district manager had expectations that Berry would 105 hours per week. Berry explained to CBS Pittsburgh that she wanted to wait to submit a two weeks notice but she couldn’t take it anymore and added that the company is very hard to work for.
Family Dollar said in a statement, “Our Garfield neighborhood store is open for business. We are not able to comment on the employment actions or status of individuals out of respect for their privacy.”
