Pros

Hy-Vee is usually pretty good about scheduling and time off requests. The work isn't difficult and the pay is competitive with other grocery stores. Additionally, if you stand out from the "i don't care about my job" part-time highschool students, you will receive a lot of respect and trust from the management.

Cons

A lot of part-time employees are students that have little respect for Hy-Vee or their work, and the store suffers correspondingly. Some of the work can be tedious and will become boring after a while, and a lot of initial errors in scheduling seem to be made.

Pros

Somewhat reasonable on schecule. Your peers and people you work with are very nice. Most customers are a joy to serve.

Cons

Managment always knows best. If your last name is not the same as a store director or of someone at the corporate level don't expect to move up very fast. If you make managment level be prepared to work extremely long hours without a "thank you" because this is what is expected of you.

Pros

Hy-Vee has a decent benefits package and a very flexible schedule when it comes to time off. The variety of work keeps things interesting.

Cons

The pay is horrible unless you are a store director. Hourly employees are treated as an expendable resource and are handled by management accordingly. Don't want to work till Mid-Night then have to be back in the store at 7am then this is not the place for you
