Pros

Always hiring . You learn a lot about meat s quality the types and cuts and get best deals for the money for yourself

Cons

Having to clean up after Carries Prom might daily. And making same per hr as other employees & departments who get to do nothing in comparison to meat Dept So much blood and types of animal meat, tissue, fat & parts just being sent flying everywhere due to bone saws, grinders and machinery then having to check dates temps and times avoid cross contaminations and package label it all too? And finish shift by not being able to leave till you have it all clean & pristine. Sanitized & spotless for USDA & FDA standards . Meat deserves higher wages than a greeter or stocking pre boxed food and canned goods onto a shelf wtf ?

Pros

Direct coworkers were great to work with. I also enjoyed being left to do my work and not babysat by management.

Cons

Management doesn't know what they are doing. Resets and floor plans were regularly not done properly. The store I worked at has a skeleton crew so I never got help (but was expected to stop everything I'm going to go help other departments/areas). Also meaning good luck to any customers needing help, especially when I was the only person working my area of the store, so when I wasn't there, no one was. Management also regularly disappeared into the offices or were on vacation. Also was terminated for reasons outside my control even though I was told they look at the reasons for attendance incidents before termination. Never got to get the FMLA or accommodation to my doctors before being terminated two days after I requested them. Didn't bother asking for a raise either. I did multiple times and got nothing.
