The company is plagued by disorganization and chronically ineffective management at multiple levels.
Pros
While Kroger Distribution has faced significant challenges — including above-average attrition at all levels — the company has maintained operations at its current location for over four years. This long-term presence can offer a degree of job security for those who adapt to the environment, and there may be opportunities for advancement as roles frequently open due to turnover.
Cons
Kroger Distribution is facing serious retention challenges, particularly among its drivers, with an alarming attrition rate exceeding 37% in 2025 — far above industry norms. This reflects deeper systemic issues tied to poor senior leadership, whose inconsistent and often arrogant approach has contributed to low morale, lack of accountability, and unstable operations. Frequent turnover among Transport Managers and Supervisors further compounds the problem, creating a chaotic work environment with limited support and direction for frontline employees.
