Pros

Every can have a flexible schedule. It is an easy environment to work in. Even during the crazy rush hour time of the day its not too bad. High school students and older people would have no problem working here for a part time position. You don't need a lot of training to get the job done right. There are always people that you can talk to if its slow or if you need some help. Never left out to do something you don't want to do. Lots of busy work so that you don't get too bored at work.

Cons

There was very low pay for young workers starting at this company. It was impossible to work full time. Managers would schedule workers for 39 hours so that they wouldn't get overtime and not be able to receive benefits in the future. Very little possibility for advancement inside the company. You might be able to more a slightly higher position over time but the pay would be a very minimal increase. For the low end positions, Albertsons will hire many people and give them little hours to see who works the best and slowly fire the others for no reason.

Pros

Albertson's is a safe location to open and close because the grocery store is already open. Socially, you can see everyone because they all grocery shop.

Cons

The downside of working at Albertsons is the set schedule for the pharmacist. I would like to adjust my time off according to my needs.

Pros

The employees at Albertsons allows for smooth transition. They allow people to take time off when needed. It seems as if management cares more about how your personal life is than how much work you are doing. It shows that they care, but wait, before you get all excited, look at the comment I left below dealing with actual work. The chance to rise up into management a t t h e s t o r e y o u w o r k a t i s e x t e m e l y h i g h.

Cons

The work we do as courtesy clerk's are far more than we should lawfully be doing. Other grocery stores have cleaning faculty, while Albertsons has none. Senior, or upper management, shows close to no respect or very little respect to their "smaller" employees. It sometimes seems as if they are listening to you, but not REALLY listening to you. They look at you but when you ask their opinion, they look off somewhere else and ask, "what?" Self-appreciation definitely goes down after a long day of work. You go home and wonder what else you can be doing. Constantly looking for other jobs.
