Pros

During covid Albertsons was a good place to work, we were helping people, funded, a lot of growth, and stable employment.

Cons

A lot of changes, heay-handed micro managers, executive team is disorganized and not focused and it results in rework and a lot of toxic behaviors. They promote bad managers and executives that are more focused on themselves over people, teams and customers. Constant reorgs and confusion on project priority and ownership. Agile and technology solutions are not advanced. Albertsons is trying to be an innovative technology company without the pay, process, and foundation. They are a late blooming retailer that is not winning in digital and that's to blame on leadership disorganization. Part of my time there was good & had a lot of great people. But with the new executive team it was a toxic, disorganized mess that I would not recommend anyone stepping into.

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.
