Actually you can get benefits at any level as long as your hired in at full time. They offer medical dental and vision at good rates. They also offer life insurance and so many different things as well. They should send you information in a packet in the mail and then you go online to your dg.me account and you can sign up for everything there.

Nothing unless your a gm or higher

I was hired in at full time right off the rip. It just depends on what you apply for and what is discussed between you and the store manager. I was hired in as shift manager/ keyholder /closing manager. It also depends on experience and if your willing to work whatever they ask of you. Usually they classify 32+ hours a week as full time.
