Pros

It is a good company to have on your resume, if you intend to stay in the retailer or CPG industry.

Cons

Management is very uneven in their treatment of employees. You can have one director that is great with their team, very supportive, smart, and good to work for. Then the next one down the aisle can be a complete jerk, and you have virtually no influence on who you work with. Senior management is strong, but they are spread so thinly, and have to spend so much time upward managing, that they don't have energy left to deal with their problem middle management. The work itself is engaging, but the load is so heavy, and the fire drills so frequent, that it is impossible to be proactive or very creative.

Not enough hours/pay to pay bills, odd hours makes it almost impossible to work a 2nd job

Pros

good pay rate, associate discount on groceries, mostly good techs

Cons

Zero work life balance, unless you live to work. "Training" screams of "I don't care". They brag about how GREAT their pharmacist training is, but that was 20 years ago, today their 4 week great training has been shoved into ONE week of on-the-job training with zero follow up or concern that you can't possibly learn all you need in that time, then they shove you out the door. Training during a cyberattack that has nothing working? That's fine, you don't get any extra time despite the fact that you can't learn on a non-working system. Management BS is deep, such as "we want our employees to know why decisions are made" then no way to ask and none of the low level managers has any freaking clue as to why changing an address in the database was changed from just overtyping it to a 5 minute process of logging into a poorly written website to update - and you thought we were bad about it before! And they ask for feedback an entire ONCE a year, with no way of providing it before.
