Pros

There is step pay raises, ( you work so many hours you get a pay raise), but you start at a pretty good rate. Some of the people working are great. Customers are mostly kind and appreciative. As an employee, you get a 10% discount on Kroger items, healthcare ( a few months in). Refresher training every year.

Cons

Management is difficult to work with, as in they don't listen to the employees that work in the department, but get angry if things turn out bad. Lots of drama between employees. Schedule is never consistent unless you are higher up on seniority. Constantly getting write ups for uncontrollable overtime. Recently there have been suspensions for speaking your mind ( management claims it's a bad attitude). Management doesn't have your back with customers who are difficult. You can't have a decent social life in this position.

Pros

The best part of working at City Market was the interaction with your co-workers. Most of the employees had a team-oriented attitude and would help each other to get the task done. Being a new employee, almost all fellow peers contributed to helping train the new team member.

Cons

Every store is different, but the pay for the amount of work was harsh. Paying employees so little meant a very high turnover rate so when you thought you trained someone to do the job, they would up and quit. The amount of work management expects from you and the way you are treated wasn't that great. Again, every store is different, different managers and supervisors
