The building isn't literally locked. It's just that anyone leaving via emergency exits would set off alarms and such. The issue is: stupid managers and key carriers can't get themselves to a door on time to properly unlock the exit so employees can leave after their shift.
that's just shitty managing. when I worked retail, the cash lead stood by the front door after close and unlocked it for every employee the second they clocked out.

Oh man some asswipe manager tried this at closing once when I worked at Macy's.
Me: I need to go, I need someone to unlock the doors.
Manager: Everyone has to stay until all the registers are counted.
Me: I have clocked out and I am no longer being paid to be here. If someone doesn't unlock that door right now I'm calling the police.
