Pros

There are none at all.

Cons

Literally everything: The horrible pay no matter what department you work for and I've been in a few. Management The sly way of doing things around the store. I.e. I just worked 7 days in a row and It's not considered overtime. They will put you down for a 5 hour and 45 minute shift when it's super busy so you don't get a second break. Holiday pay is a joke Staying open for most of the day on a Holiday is depressing The shoppers/rude people. The broken machines. I.e. Dicer has been broken for over a year and glues together more than once. Handle on the freezer door doesn't even exist. The favoritism. If you upset someone off they will get back at you, especially management. Erratic schedules The union. Hey why don't you do something for us? Even walking in the parking lot to get to work. Forget the stop signs put in speed bumps or even better would be metal spike that force the driver to proceed slowly. A piece of me dies every time I walk into the store.

Pros

Depending on your store you can get a parking pass that allows you to park in any state parking lot for free.. You can get a discount on your phone bill for being a union member. It's very easy to make friends with people when you are ALL equally treated like garbage by people in higher positions. The swing shift stocking crew people are always really nice. You get to see a lot of nice people and help little old ladies get the jam from the top shelf.

Cons

Where do I start. No one was professional. The managers would give out employee phone numbers to others. People who had worked there for 100 years were allowed to be cruel because "Oh that's just how they are." I'm sorry.. but deciding to spend your entire life as a cashier at a grocery store does not make it okay for you to be a bigot or a misogynist. Everyone treated it like a personality quirks. I once asked if another employee was working that day.. and a cashier said 'Why is that your business?" ....??? These people are angrier than DMV employees and it really is no wonder with the unfairness after layoffs. The fact that extremely hard working meat department and deli employees make only 50 cents more than baggers? Being told you can either clean up the homeless guys poop off the walls in the bathroom or go home for not doing your job. The gossip about employees from other stores is through the roof. And not just ohhh that person is so mean. You hear things like managers having sex with underaged girls in the coolers. Things that are kind of worrisome?
