Pros

Working for El Super is like working with your family. Everybody is friendly and everybody talks to everybody.

Cons

In an effort to save cost and time, the company doesn't do any formal training. Everything is on-the-job training and the employees need to learn everything on their own, especially when getting transferred to another department temporarily or for the day. Because of this, it takes employees weeks to understand the department. Also, at the store I work at it seems as if Mexicans born in Mexico are favored over Mexican-Americans.
