Pros
My time at Albertsons was very beneficial. I was started off as a bagger and worked my way up to a SSPC (Service Supervisor and Personnel Coordinator) within about three to four months of working there. It was clear from that experience that if you posses the skills and abilities to move up in the company, they are more than willing to provide you with career advancements.
Cons
The store I worked at payed weekly which was nice but also allowed the managers of departments to only make weekly schedules rather than bi-weekly. This was a large source of conflict between managers and other employees. Also, I was an orientation facilitator and realized that the training materials you are providing for orientation are rather outdated. While the information is still relevant, the majority of the videos are clearly from the 90's and makes new employees as well as the orientation facilitators cringe. Finally, for the job that I possessed and the information and responsibility that was put upon me, I simply should have been paid more than $10.20 an hour. It should be company policy to pay individuals with access to all of the employee information and access to all of the money in the store more than the average individual. I always felt underpaid for the position that I was in.
