Pros

I am at a loss for words on this topic

Cons

Very low pay. Problems go unsolved for weeks. No room for creatively. It is a punitive work environment and not one where you can grow. If you are good at keeping quiet and can cower while keeping your eyes lowered, this place is for you. I’ve seen some or their awful treatment given to great employees here. They seem to punish the workers who are helpful and friendly while the rude mean workers are let alone. There are a lot of disgruntled angry employees here who are incredibly disrespectful to the customers. I find myself apologizing for their behavior. And the managers seem terrified of making any kind of decision that isn’t listed in the rule book. Before working at Winco I read these posts and thought that it couldn’t be as bad as these folks but I gotta say....it’s bad! What’s up?

Pros

Great coworkers and managers. The products are great and I loved that I was able to offer great customer service. Moving up and around in the company is easy, positions are always opening up because the company continues to expand. They also have an employee share program

Cons

The hours can be sketchy, depending on the department you're in. Some weeks can be higher than others. The workload is also heavy and the expectations are high but manageable.
