Pros

-Plenty of hours due to lack of staffing

Cons

-Lack of staffing leaves more work on employees' shoulders -Minimum wage for chaotic jobs in which customer and employee health and safety are a concern (deli, meats, bakery) -Little to no recognition for hard work and going above and beyond expectations -An empty promise of advancement -A depressing atmosphere filled with the general feeling of being "stuck"

Pros

Family oriented and family owned. There are no company mood swings based on Wall Street. Very friendly people who truly want to help each other. No desire to take over the world and there is a good balance between making a profit and keeping prices low for the customer. Great place to work for 20+ years and have job security.

Cons

Advancement within the company is very very slow. Lots of opportunities for lateral moves, but most senior people come from other retailers. Pay is slightly below average because Grand Rapids is relatively inexpensive. Also has most/all of the same issues that other retailers have so if you don't like the retail world, you won't like Meijer.
