Pros

For the most part the work is easy the pay is competitive for the industry.

Cons

**In retail you can be granted weekends off from time to time , but for the most part plan on your off days landing during the week and working weekends. **Micromanagement is numbing, mainly because almost all tasks can be easily learned within a matter of days to weeks in your department. ** Promotion, don’t plan on being promoted, I’ve worked for the company before and came back thinking it was possible me… not so, they literally hand pick who they want in these leadership roles. Largely based on good ole boy mentality and public relations. **Im at the age in my life where I need to stop using my back and start using my head. That being said it’s definitely not going to happen here. ** inevitably kroger can go kick rocks, just waiting until the time seems right for a different company. ** I gave 3 stars based on the fact that if all you want is the basics your good but don’t expect promotion unless you fall into there future plans for there public relations. **culture for the most part depends on the management and the store your. It can be very toxic, depending on this.

Pros

Very little contact with customers. Night premium. Small discount on store brand items.

Cons

Extremely low pay. Insurance isn't available until after your first year. Head store manager has no people skills, a very bad attitude and is blinded by personal ambition. This infects the entire store with a glum, sour tone. In general, clerks and associates have a very bad attitude.
