      Pros

      - Safeway is in play and will be acquired by a competitor. There will be a significant amount of uncertainty for incumbents due to the consolidation but potential opportunity for new hires. - Employee benefits such as health coverage, wellness plans, retirement and ESOP are very attractive.

      Cons

      - Safeway is an incredibly huge organisation with near 175,000 employees. Most are based in the 1,300 food retail stores. The IT organisation has an operational/cost savings focus and is not regarded as a change agent by the business. - Place too much value on employee tenure rather then performance

      Pros

      Nothing at all, only work at Safeway if you're about to be literally homeless

      Cons

      Genuinely hellish work environment. Management is lazy and absent, customers are the most disrespectful and clueless I have ever encountered. Complete unrealistic labor allocation and expectations. As a PIC, I have to run 9 SCO robots, unlock cases for customers, perform transactions at Customer Service, and answer external phone calls. Customers rightly get frustrated at the complete lack of care by corporate, and take it out on employees.
