Pros

There is a lot of choices in your career with this company. There are great benefits in the company. The company has many ways to keep you active and proud of your work. The work at Albertsons is very dynamic and can be a fun place to work at. The work is also fast pace and great place to keep as a career or use as a stepping stone to something better. Time will go by fast for you. There is alot a person can learn from working with this company yet customer service is the number one of this job.

Cons

Some methods of the hiring process of unstable employees. Some emplyees can be over looked for possible raises or advanced by biases reasons. There are some downtimes which can be boring. Overtime is rarely seen within the company and put down upon if a worker has it wether it was really needed. Old computer systems and cash registers were still in use in the company which were prone to crashes, and slowness. Not enough in advertisement or grabbing loyal customers. Disbanding certain career movement programs and training classes. Flexiblity is limited with employees or they face less hours based unrelated reasons or operations.

Pros

Stability. Location. I say stability because I started with Albertsons when I was 16 years old, which is over twenty years ago. I started as a courtesy clerk and was well compensated at the time compared to other entry level positions for a 16 year old. Pay increased with the responsibility accepted. Location is a benefit as there so many Allbertsons, you have an opportunity to transfer to different locations if you would like to move.

Cons

Long hours. Working holidays. The stigma of working in a supermarket. The compensation has not kept pace with inflation. A weak union contract has made it difficult to hire and keep good help, and competition from other retailers, ie. Walmart has made it difficult to be profitable.

Pros

Albertsons as a whole is a very good company to work for, I worked there for many years and up untill recently have been very satisfied. They pay well, The health insurance is good and lots of growth possibitites within company.

Cons

They need to make the employees feel more respected and give kuddos when deserved. They have been making alot of changes and for the most part its good. I would say I'm completely satisfied, for the exception of the particular store I recently left. Everyone very unhappy and store director a very hard person to work for. The store moral very bad. I have actually never been soooo miserable in my life! In all my years with the Company this was my worst experience ever. I suggest you research the moral of the overall store before applieing. The one on midkiff is not one I personally would recommend. It's the person running the store not the employees as a whole!
