Pros

Flexible schedule, great people to work with. Not too demanding of a job, and managers are always there to help.

Cons

No pay raise, never get to work over 30 hours a week. Company is too afraid to give out benefits to give out more than 30 hours a week. My department had 3 workers in it and they still wouldn't have us work more, they just laid all the work down on one employee and hoped it would get done.

Pros

Hy-Vee is a great company that truly cares about the communities we serve. Our 14 fundamentals drive both the customer and employee experience, guiding how we treat and serve our customers and each other. Leadership actively seeks employee feedback and uses it to drive meaningful change across all locations. There is a wide variety of jobs and career opportunities in many different areas of the company from retail to supply chain, IT, marketing, and so many more. obust employee benefits include tuition assistance for degrees, certifications, and foundational learning at little to no cost to employees, and the company focuses on promoting from within for most leadership roles.

Cons

As a 24/7 retail business, scheduling can be demanding in some roles — though the variety of positions means there's flexibility to find the right fit. With a large, decentralized workforce spread across hundreds of locations, consistent employee communication is an ongoing area of focus and improvement.
