Pros

I worked in a small town, most of the people were friendly. The medical, dental, and vision benefits were good. I liked that Albertsons was flexible with my school schedule. Some of the employee discounts are pretty good.

Cons

There is no growth opportunity, the union is not very helpful. The company does not care for it's employees. I worked with the company for almost 7 years and was a great employee. That didn't matter i was let go without a warning. I think the company is not doing so good economically. They seem to be cutting costs by letting go of employees with higher wages and employees who had recently gotten a promotion.

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.
