      I worked for Hy-Vee for seven years. I started as a cashier and worked up to being an assistant store manager.

      Pros

      They're flexible if you're in school. None of the jobs are difficult at the retail level. It's a decent job to do while in school.

      Cons

      If you're an assistant manager you have to put in long days. Irregular working hours. Babysitting high school workers. It's certainly not a career unless you work at corporate.

      Good starter job, but nothing special.

      Pros

      I worked here for about 16 months while I was in high school. You definitely got to try all of the sweet treats, and helping customers with cakes was always fun. It's a great starter job into the real world, because it is fast paced and you deal with all types of people.

      Cons

      Management is awful, I mean just plain awful. My bakery manager was never flexible around my schedule, and would keep us late hours. The second assistant managers are all right out of high school, and are immature and rude. A demanding job. They don't pay you enough for everything you have to accomplish. Some customers are so rude, especially when their cake is not done to their liking. As a clerk, you can't do anything about a messed up cake. When I wanted to transfer locations it took me forever to even get ahold of store management. Then the store said they had hired a bunch of new people, so I wasn't needed. Yet I had all the experience over new hires. Very frustrating experience.

      Pros

      Helping customers, work with someone that already know for awhile.

      Cons

      The new management don't understand the values of the employee and customers. One day they going to train me up the new bottle machines(somehow I know how to do it), and the management wants not to work at the bottle returns machines.
