Pros

Benefits and pay. Are the only thing.

Cons

12 hour days. No potential for growth. Techs get treated better. In desperate need of unionization. continuous labor cuts. No raises. No bonuses. Ever increasing workload. No breaks or kunch. Basically, unless you are a brown-noser or play politics you get no breaks. Performance really doesn't matter. Management thinks that we exist because of their work! It's a very, very bad environment. There is no time for your life or you family, don't believe the hype they tryto sell.

Pros

I'm going back to college soon so i'm glad to have a job that is going to allow me to keep it while going to school. The pay is decent (after 840 hours worked you get a raise)

Cons

Your ability to get a promotion probably depends on which one you work at but more than likely you'll have to be there a very long time. You are a slave to working weekends, holidays and whatever schedule they see fit. It constantly changes also. You will never have a set schedule with this company.

Pros

The grocery business is very interesting. It's marketing a commodity that everyone needs and everyone has an opinion about. There's a ton of data and you can put together some very interesting promotions that can measurably change customer behavior.

Cons

Forget advancement if you are a female with children or a male with children you actually like to see on occasion. It doesn't matter how much you do, what your accomplishments are, it matters who you know (or worked with back when you were a boxboy) and how long you stay at the office (face time). People with no education or technical skills who have an outgoing personality and have sucked up to the right people (and hustled when they worked in a store) get the great jobs and the perks, while those with educations and technical skills are set off to the side unless they have a mentor or an advocate. Oh, and co-op funds rule the day.
