Poor communication - Anonymous employee Safeway Employee Review

Serious lack of communication. Manager never communicates that someone has called in sick, until that person doesn't show up and we are left wondering wtf? Manager has to be in control of everything, no point in having front end managers when the manager flips out on you in the front end, in front of everyone (customers too) for giving someone their break. Getting breaks is like pulling teeth, fear of getting yelled at, retaliation etc. Extreme pressure and threats to fulfill donation quotas, paperwork in the checkstand. Having to WRITE DOWN NAMES OF RANDOM CUSTOMERS on a paper to turn in at the end of the day, yeah customers LOVE seeing that!
