      Pros

      The pay is pretty decent Kroger has been around a long time and people always have to buy food, so you don't worry much about getting laid off.

      Cons

      Promotions are purely handed out based on who you are friends with and who you make feel special. It is especially hard to get a promotion if you are a minority. You are expected to give up family time and outside life, you have to choose kroger over your children, spouse, religion, and morals. No matter what you do, how long you work, nor how hard you work it is never good enough. We are expected to achieve the impossible with very little hours and resources.

      I have found that employee loyalty to the company far exceeds the company's loyalty to the employee.

      Pros

      The team I work with in the deli is fantastic. In fact, if not for them and their support, I would find this job almost unbearable. We provide positive feedback to each other and help each other out.

      Cons

      There is no positive feedback from management. Whenever the company needs you, you're expected to be on call for them. However, your "reward" for helping them out is to have your hours cut the next week. I personally have gone to management with concerns or problems and had an upper management person tell me to quote "suck it up" and " you're expendable". In my opinion, that's not a professional or acceptable response to an employee.

      Pros

      Weekly paycheck at most Kroger stores.

      Cons

      You are working with teenagers, so if you are older you will be reminded of it everyday. Half of the employees just stand around and do nothing while you are working your butt off. The people definitely act their age and management does nothing when you complain.
