Employment

In some cases Big Boy's face issues with employment due to a past felony record. It should be noted that not all felonies are created equal. 

For example ....

Amazon

"Is Amazon felony friendly?

Does Amazon hire felons? Yes, Amazon hires convicted felons on a case-by-case basis. That said, the hiring process considers several things, like the type of felony, how far back it was, and whether it was a single or repeat offense."

Dollar General

Yes, Dollar General does hire felons. It is important to remember that they will not hire all felons. Dollar General's online application does not ask about criminal records. Your background check will not be completed until after your interview.

Kroger

Kroger is willing to hire felons, but the hiring process will be more difficult for individuals with serious criminal convictions. Typically, Kroger will consider each candidate and conviction on a case-by-case basis. 

Lowes

Yes, Lowe's does hire felons.

However, felonies related to theft, fraud, or violent crime automatically disqualify a candidate from employment, no matter how old the charges are. 

Bottom line is .... apply anyway and wait to see what the employers current position is.
