Pros

8 successful years of service

Cons

Meijer fired me over a mistake that I made and never gave me a chance to correct it. In 8 years with Meijer I never had been written up, never got suspended, I work every weekend and every holiday. Even transfer to help them out with another store. My Dad died on September 19, 2024 and the whole year I wasn't right emotionally and on October 5, 2024 they fired me in my depths of grieving over the loss of my Dad

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.
