Pros

The employees were nice, the pay was alright and you get payed every Friday which is very convenient.

Cons

You have to be a part of a stupid that literally eats up all of your money. Just to sign up, and its mandatory if you work there, its $200. Which is ridiculous because it basically meant my entire first pay check went in to paying that. Then it takes away 11% of your check, which I was so mad about. When I got there, all they let me do was bag. They basically make us do the dirty work they dont want to. Taking out the trash , clean the bathrooms, sweep the entire store, get carts outside. All this while at the same time making sure you're still bagging, because if god forbid you're trying to do the rest of your duties you'll get scolded at for not being at the front bagging. Not only that but the managers had an immensely obvious favoritism toward workers, which made it uncomfortable to try and talk to them because if you weren't their favorite they looked at you like you were wasting their time.

Pros

Good discounts, a free item every week through the app, hardship fund if approved, option for stocks

Cons

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.
