TOGETHER,
WE MAKE A
DIFFERENCE.
From our beginnings as one small store in Kentucky to our growing locations across the U.S., we have continuously shown up for underserved communities. Our commitment to Serving Others extends to our team, too. We’re taking steps to ensure Dollar General is inclusive so we can reflect the communities we work in. Our differences make us stronger, and we celebrate diversity. No matter who you are, you are welcome here.
At Dollar General we foster an environment where employees and customers feel valued
and are able to bring their whole selves to Dollar General each day. We are committed to respecting and embracing the differing experiences and perspectives we all bring to the table. With such a bright future ahead of us, we will continue to collaborate to reach new customers, promote an inclusive culture, and live our values of giving back.
OUR STORIES.
CALI
DISTRICT MANAGER
“Being a kid from a third world country, I faced so many challenges. Everyday I wake up and think about how far you can go in this company regardless of where you come from.”
BRIAN
SENIOR DIRECTOR OF CUSTOMS AND ETHICAL COMPLIANCE
“A lot of people might not know what LGBT people experience. Being accepted for who I am makes a big difference for me. At DG, we celebrate our differences.”
DENISE
DIRECTOR OF EMPLOYMENT BRANDING
“Don’t try to fit in, just be authentically you. Be a light in darkness. Be okay with being different. And then be the difference in the lives of others.”
DALLAS
TRUCK DRIVER TRAINER
“Working hard at my job makes it so someone else can get food on their table at night. I think everyone should be as nice as they can every day, so they have the chance to make someone’s day.”
