Pros

Flexible shifts, grocery discount, air conditioning (depends on your position)

Cons

Corporate structure is just annoying from the bottom looking up, yearly raises at a ~50 cents feel like a slap in the face ("Hey you're such a great worker thanks so much! No, sorry we can't pay you any more than we do.")

Not Veteran Friendly,UFCW Union Is In The Pocket of Kroger ! This is How Shady, Un-Truthful Hypocritical People Ruin A Vets Reputation! I am a Disabled Combat Veteran of ( 2005-2006 )Operation Iraqi Freedom. I have a CCW lic. I am told I SCARED Mgt because I am a Member of the CVMA (Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association) Vets Helping Vets. I have been working for the KRoger co as a Journeyman/Head Butcher, for Over 29 yrs. I have been Demoted 2 times due to my Physical injuries From IRAQ, I am no longer able to do the job I did before. I believe my Problems Started after my Mgr told Me to "TAKE that ( ) off your hat!!! THAT ( ) is a UNITED STATES of AMERICA Flag, OIF Combat Veteran ribbons hat, and my Wounded Warrior pin!!! I asked him to Apologize and he said "NO" I went to His boss and She said "It's JUST A FLAG and Pins" I was recently transferred to a new location because my supervisor had a problem with me confronting him on referring to me as a PATHETIC CRIPPLE, I also came to the Aide of some part-time employee's that he had Threatened Daily! I have been at the previous location since 2008 with 2 different supervisor's and 3 different store manager's with NO PROBLEMS. I am at the new location less than 3 weeks and I am terminated for being a Verbal Threat to EVERYONE!!! This Review has Been Edited ( ) for Inferred Profanity!
