Pros

- The produce manger is really understanding and flexible with hours. -the hourly wage is pretty decent and the job is enjoyable. -The job is production, so you can leave early if you get everything finished. -Early starting shift time. -PTO and free health insurance to full-time employees. Overall, I really enjoyed this job because it paid decent and worked well with my school schedule. It is great as long as you just get your job done and get out without interacting with certain people.

Cons

-Understaffed and Unwilling to pay overtime while being expected to do the work of multiple people within a standard 8-hr shift. -Hours were constantly cut, especially for the produce department. -A lot of gossip sexual harassment went on here and no one batted an eyelash or disciplined employees for inappropriate behavior. - Management showed favoritism with certain employees. -They hire some pretty terrible employees that take a million breaks, are high all the time, and stick you with all of the work.

Pros

Nothing at all, only work at Safeway if you're about to be literally homeless

Cons

Genuinely hellish work environment. Management is lazy and absent, customers are the most disrespectful and clueless I have ever encountered. Complete unrealistic labor allocation and expectations. As a PIC, I have to run 9 SCO robots, unlock cases for customers, perform transactions at Customer Service, answer external phone calls, and move freight. Customers rightly get frustrated at the complete lack of care by corporate, and take it out on employees. Management in the morning all skip out on the evening management early every single day, a luxury the closing staff are not allowed.
