Pros

They try to have a family like work environment. Good about giving you your requested days off. Fast pace work environment, occasionally. Mangers for the most part are decent people. decent-ish pay

Cons

A lot. The first year I worked here was great, way better then my previous job but is more stressful and unfulfilling. Management in certain departments is very hands off causing certain departments to fall apart. Soft lines is riddled with drama due horrible scheduling practices. Management refuses to replace employees who quit causing the other employees to be stressed out.The point system is horribly outdated and not even enforced. There is lots of employees who get away with wasting company time but management dose nothing about it . There is a endless amount of computer training but your pretty much on your own when its time to go on the floor. Extremely poor work life balance . While its extremely hard to become full time, management will gladly give you full time like hours. While I never reach 40 hours, It isn't unusual to be at Meijer Every single day, sometimes nine days straight before your given a day off . The company culture is rapidly going down hill due to a very outdated company structure.

Pros

- Pickup is very chill and some days you can just hang out between orders (in the evenings mostly) - You can listen to music or podcasts while picking if you can still hear people / customers (Technically it's not allowed, but you can get away with it)

Cons

- Some days can be hell, and it's very variable - It's very physically draining - The schedule is never consistent
