Pros

Steady job. The food industry is a safe line of work - Just think, everyone needs to eat! Job security. Great business plan Corporate strategy is well planned Significant market share The place has gotten better since I've been there (not implying that I, personally, made the difference)

Cons

Management is incompetent and dishonest/disrespectful to each other as well as employees Little/Poor training The hours are brutal Forget about balancing work and life schedules! Vacation must be taken a full week at a time - 2 weeks a year until you've been there 5 years If your mom dies, expect to get written up for missing a day - cause you won't be allowed to take the day off (unless it happens to fall during one of your weeks off) Irrational expectations - want you to do everything, but not give you the necessary resources Significant turnover, both in supervision and warehouse personnel - Surprised? It is OK to cuss out your supervisor, everybody does it! - Very unprofessional environment

Pros

10% discount on all kroger branded items $17.25 per hour is one of the better wages in the area when compared to competitor stores

Cons

October-January the workload and store environment is overwhelming due to holidays Slowest time of year in the store is during the summer when its hot and days drag ob forever Lack of communication between dept as well as between store management MOD adds insurmountable tasks onto your already lengthy expected daily task assignments
