Pros

The only reason I stay there is for the pay. I can't go anywhere else and make what I do there, but I've been employed there for 12 years.

Cons

I don't have enough room in this box to fit all of the cons. The company and management treat the staff horribly. We get lied to for promotions, raises, and paid time off. The majority of the time we are treated as if we are imcompetent and very replaceable. The worst part is the workload. They want you to become three people when you walk in the door, yet there is never sufficient hours or staff. I would tell anyone not to work here.

10% discount on all kroger branded items $17.25 per hour is one of the better wages in the area when compared to competitor stores

Cons

October-January the workload and store environment is overwhelming due to holidays Slowest time of year in the store is during the summer when its hot and days drag ob forever Lack of communication between dept as well as between store management MOD adds insurmountable tasks onto your already lengthy expected daily task assignments
