good place to work

Business Outlook

Pros

Very good scheduling and management. They will work with you to give you the best schedule possible and compatiable with your personal life out side of the company. The benefits were very competive with those of other companies and the raises were decent. It was also nice to get the little things such as something special on your birthday or a present for every year you work with the company. Management was always easy to get a hold of when you need them and very understanding when you have personal issues that you must take care of.

Cons

Sometime I felt like it was hard to work your way up, especially starting at such a low position. I often felt that the upper management thought they were better than me.

Working at Giant Eagle is not that "Giant"

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

flexible schedule, location, proximity from home, those are the only reasons that i could think of, other than that not many reasons.

Cons

no respect for employees, minimum wages for a whole lot of physical work which includes lifting 50pounds, no appreciation for good work, chances are the manager of your dept. would be a high school drop-out so no room for intellectual growth. They will pay you minimum wages and a good portion of it would be deducted for the union which will take away 50 bucks as initiation fee and 7$ every week, the union is good for nothing & will never help you.
