Pros

I worked the deli, respected and like the Deli Manager, and had a good experience learning more about the food and the industry.

Cons

Lack of full time hours, rush to help customers verses time to get everything right, a lot of distance between local and corporate, not a lot of communication with the union in my 3 months there, it can be a challenge to keep standards up when it is busy, not much of an employee break space, difficult to see expired food go to waste, balancing a sufficient and winning stock strategy against the problem of shrinkage due to perishing food.

Pros

In Boise, one of only 3 games in town. Good compensation for the area (used to be very good). Organization allows you to do a lot of different things across a lot of different spaces --- $40-50B companies have a lot of opportunities in spaces. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..

Cons

Rapidly becoming a Minnesota-leaders-only organization with management opportunities rapidly evaporating in the Boise area. Compensation is being cut each and every year particularly in the bonus categories. Annual wage increases are also increasing at a decreasing rate. "Career" industry folks tend to fill up the directorial ranks even though there are some very low-talent individuals in those spots --- mainly filling a seat because they know the people around them, not because they are gifted in any way... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..

Pros

There is a family atmosphere at this location. The workforce is mature and hardworking. Lot of people working that have been there over 5 years, but there are still opportunities for advancement. Company is experiencing exceptional growth.

Cons

I have been there for over 2 months and have yet to see a downside.
