Pros

Managers were nice, developed friendships with a few employees Store provided food for employees working on Christmas Eve

Cons

Lines get really long so you are basically checking items out non stop for your entire shift. You get a 15 minute break if you work longer than 4 hours and a 30 minute break if you work longer then either 7 or 8 hours. Customers get very angry about their groceries. There is a bagger assigned for the day but spends little to no time bagging, mostly cleans and attends to the parking lot. The cashier is responsible for bagging and it slows down the process of checking the customer out. Schedules were weird and it was hard to have a personal life around your weird work schedule.

Pros

Lasting friendships from store to store, bonus checks twice a year, annual raise, associate recognition via quarterly employee of the month and dinners/lunches/breakfasts around the holidays at some stores. Overall good company as a whole to work for, just have to know how to handle customers the way the company wants you to handle them.

Cons

Asking for a raise is like asking for the winning lottery ticket unless it's your annual raise, in which you're lucky to even get regardless. You can be scheduled whenever depending on the department head, your schedule is either really great or all over the place, never guaranteed any set hours, even if full time you're lucky to get the full 40-hour week. Must work some holidays, so if you have to work and your family is out of town, just count on not celebrating unless you can work out something with the department head. Paying for uniforms that don't even last for very long because they wear out or lose buttons very quickly.
