Pros

You work for the Kroger company. Good benefits, good perks. There is a standard annual review process that does usually include an increase. The hours are good for a medical-type job.

Cons

The corporate office is very disconnected from the field team, and therefore unrealistic expectations are set. They trust outside sources (consultants, etc) more. There is not nearly enough support down on the ground.

Pros

• Generally work with fantastic people. • Work is not difficult, and time flies when busy. • My bosses collaborated with me to create a schedule that worked, as I often had other commitments. • Overall, a pleasant work experience most days. Get good at what you do and you'll do fine.

Cons

• Some of the senior management was less friendly than others - as to be expected. • Days were very volatile; some could be extremely easy, and others could be a nightmare. • Scheduling was kept rather limited; although I was able to get the hours I wanted, often times management would look to cut hours from departments whenever possible, leaving less support.
