Fred Meyer reviews

Upper management is very disconnected from what is really going on, favoritism was a problem, if you do well in a section, you'll get stuck there even if the section head is terrible and causes more problems than solutions. It was stressful when arriving at work, you were greeted with all the problems the worker before you didn't take care of then expected to clean up their mess.

Fred Meyer forbids employees from accepting tips. Parcel clerks have to put back groceries from the backs of checkstands to a shelving unit (non-perishables like cereal, flour, canned goods) which is dumb since not many parcel clerks know where everything goes like anyone in the food department does. Parcel clerk job is minimum wage - look to change positions if you want a raise. If you're in school looking for a part-time 12-hour job don't be surprised if they initially schedule you on 20-26 hrs / week; we don't have very many parcels. If it's a sunny day, 1-2 days before a holiday, or word hits that there might be a storm coming, more customers will come in, which means there's more people coming in and taking the carts and leaving them all over the parking lot and sometimes outside the parking lot.
