Pros
The best reason to work for Albertson's is because it is a low stress place of employment and pays generally well. The company has a very flexible retirement plan that you can direct if you are so inclined and know what you are doing.
Cons
The downsides are that the company is unable to compete with Wal Mart in pricing on many items. However, they can be cheaper on some items. There are also many wasteful practices of the company as well, such as throwing away products that are still edible/usable instead of donating to local foodbanks. More should be done by the company to limit its waste and shrink.
