Pros

although the actual kroger store closes at 1 a.m. the meat department closes at 9. it takes about an hour to clean up if you have enough people so you will be able to leave no later than 10.

Cons

the starting salary for the hard work and extreme cold conditions is pretty darn low. for a natural raise you would have to wait at least 60 days.

Pros

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
