Pros

Some Good People to Work for Decent Pay and Benefits for old Contract people (Hired before 2003) Weekly Pay Check

Cons

Overworked Company Audits all the time (tons of audits)The company seems like they care more about audits then Sales and Service Store Visits Normally bye VP and Dm telling you how bad your store looks bad and need to fix it. Bad turnaround of employment (min wage start or little more to start)Lots of No shows sick calls ect leading to extra work and stress on workers. Very bad mural around the whole company

Very poor store management

Business Outlook

Pros

Great customers. Von's really values and promotes good customer service.

Cons

Courtesy clerks work very hard. Outside in the hot sun for 2 hours rounding up carts, then sweeping the floors while answering customer's questions and helping them find items. Next they clean the disgusting bathrooms and then run up front to bag groceries (unsanitary!). All the while the store managers and older employees are barking orders at them non-stop. New hires are given no training, just supposed to know what to do by osmosis I suppose. The managers seem to have no time for them and are quite demeaning.
