>Low pay, long hours, everyone is a 'manager'...
There have been class-action lawsuits filed against dollars stores addressing this very issue of misclassifying employees as managers in order to avoid paying hourly overtime.
Family Dollar lost a $35 million judgment[0]. Dollar General faced a similar lawsuit, but the case lost class-action certification on a technicality[1].
