Pros

Great starting salaries for DM's and above. Excellent benefits package. High-quality peers and co-workers.

Cons

Fear culture. "I'm excited upper management is coming!" -said no one ever. We scramble to make the stores presentable then brace for negative feedback. Positive reinforcement is reserved for your Birthday and Christmas, and will only come in the form of a text message. Every decision from HQ is designed to protect themselves from the wrath of International, not serve customers.

Pros

Intelligent engaged people, Modern offices, Decent pay, and good retirement benefits.

Cons

Growing pains of a European company modifying its business to grow its American footprint. Senior leadership was mostly European. Felt disconnected from American grocery culture.
