Pros

decent store discounts and partner perks. ok executive level leadership. keeps employees aware of financial situation. many strides have been made to give new hires benefits and stock options earlier.

Cons

There is a great deal of bias in the headquarters of heb own brand. I have seen many people who work hard and do great jobs get passed over for those who play the game well and are buddy-buddy with managers. Poele who are lazy and do not do their own work have been promoted. There are several biases present within the own brand group and if you do not fit that bias, you will have to work two to three times harder to just be seen as equal. the culture is touted as being so great, but in the middle of it, there is in-fighting, gossip, people putting others down, and unfair treatment. nothing in this world is fair, and that is shown in this company. Those who have proved themselves over and over and have done everything asked of them are called to wait while those who suck-up to leaders get everything they could want.

Pros

There were no pros at all.

Cons

My experience at the Frisco location was largely negative due to the store leadership team, headed by Stacie Sorenson. I found the management approach to be unsupportive and at times created a stressful work environment. I often felt singled out and treated differently because of my background and appearance, which made me feel uncomfortable and unwelcome during my internship. Pay was not competitive compared to similar employers. Scheduling was often inconsistent and difficult to plan around. In my experience, HR tended to support store leadership rather than adequately addressing employee concerns. The quality of the internship experience varies greatly depending on the store and management team. There can be resentment from some employees toward interns, particularly from those who were interested in the program but were not selected. Communication, mentorship, and support were not at the level I expected from a company that promotes its internship program so heavily.
