Arrogance & Insignificance

Pros

A place to work and have co-worker friends that support each other.

Cons

Arrogant and self serving managment people.There main interest seams to be in promoting themselves no matter who they step on to get there. No cost of living increases. I am payed only 0.40 cents an hour than I was nearly a decade ago. With the cost of insurance, taxes etc. I take home less money now, while the company braggs to us on a regular basis how our hard work keeps increasing there millions in profits. We are the ones making them there profits, not the managers, PIC's etc.. From my experience most of them are very lazy. Continual cuts in employees and work hours puts more stress and work on all other employees and we are expected to maintain the work load and managments expectations no matter how insignificate they are. I contiuually here managment people, from store directors to PIC's, talking down customers. Seams to be in complete opposition to the "Customer First" "policy" they talk to us about. Fred Meyer for myself and the majority of my co-workers that I speak with, is a very stressfull place to work.

Pros

Pay is great compared to similar jobs in the vicinity, being a union member is comforting

Cons

Many in store management don't take the time to be on the floor and "know" their employees.. they base a lot on word of mouth of other associates which can obviously turn out very poorly when multiple people are up for the same promotion.

Pros

Most or all of the positions are unionized and you're treated really well by the management. Fun place to work and feels like I'm doing something good on a day-to-day basis.

Cons

Working in customer service is tough and sometimes the policies that are set in place by the store as far as returns, etc. are subject to change based on how customers act.
