Pros

I worked in the Pharmacy. The majority of the employees are very friendly and hard working. The pay is good for someone who is still in college. The company has guaranteed raise every 6 months whether you sat on your butt or worked hard. You get to know some of the regular customers and some of them can be very friendly.

Cons

Rude, demanding customers. The mentally ill patients. If someone gets sick, there are no staff technicians to take their place. No one takes a real lunch or breaks.

Pros

Kroger tends to be growing in the Dallas area so there is some chance for advancement. They really want degreed mangement, but that is hard to find in the retail industry since degreed individuals want more of a 9-5 job with weekends off.

Cons

They are getting rid of full time employees and getting more part-time to cut costs, so mangement tends not to care about any employees

Pros

i have only been on the job for 2 weeks now and they seem to be flexible in the Drug GM department as far as my hours are concerned. That is important for me because I am studying for one of my board exams.

Cons

When it is slow and you are standing on your feet, the job is very tough and literally painful. They are not flexible about letting you help out in some other department that requires help. I guess it might be due to logiistical reasons. Maybe they want to tabulate how much is spent on employees in each department.
