Pros

Hired a fresh college grad You are immediately given a lot of responsibility, which is nice when learning

Cons

Laid me off after 2 months (3 days short) of working in corporate, due to lay-offs training was all over the place Other employees were wildly overworked while I had to be speed-trained so that they weren't overwhelmed Overall, really old systems. Most things that took up my time did not need to take that much of our time. Inefficient.

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
