Pros

Flexible schedule for students, opportunity for management, not a difficult job to keep, easy to relocate to different stores, don't have to make an extra trip after work to get groceries.

Cons

It's like a customer service factory. The focus is on speed of scanning items and being genuinely pleased to meet each customer - there are hundreds of customers and they're often frazzled and hostile. I know it doesn't sound that bad, but I've never had a more exhausting and frustrating job and I've done backbreaking construction work.

Pros

None. Get out while you can.

Cons

Houston location has the worst leaders. They're cheap with raises and cut the good people so the management team can get better bonuses. They make up rules that make no sense when they feel like. There are guys in the yard who have no job titles but somehow are still working there doing nothing all day? The safety leads/radio room/management are a joke. They cover up for the people they're buddies with. Ran into the gate? Destroy thousands of dollars of goods or a trailer? Ran out of gas in the middle of the road driving the mule offsite? Not a problem if you're buddies with management and safety. If you're buddies with management, you get opportunities offered to you even though you may be among the worst and slowest spotters. If you're not buddies with management/safety/radio, you have to watch your back. HEB corporate needs to look into management here.
