Alright but as a grocery clerk, you will definitely be taken advantage of.

Business Outlook

Pros

9.20 staring pay You will learn ALOT from every area as a groecry clerk.

Cons

You will be the store’s most “used” person(along with other grocery clerks) and its a bad thing because you will get sent to every department, pretty much do everything...cashier, meat clerk,seafood clerk, torilleria clerk,deli dairy clerk, frozen clerk,kitchen clerk,EVERYTHING! Even though you’re only supposed to fill up the aisles... but you will be payed the minimum there (which is 9.20 where i work). But definitely not worth it because of the exhaustion and all the extra work you do only to get payed the same as a cashier

Business Outlook

Pros

You get at least 36 to 37 hours a week. Get paid weekly.

Cons

They use you. They hire you for one postion, then they decide to jump you around in different departments where payment is different and the company still just pays you the minimum. You only get one day off. Work every holiday. No one gets opportunities to grow you have to be liked not a hard worker.
