Pros

flexible schedule, benefits, my direct supervisor was miles away, minimal micro managaging, ability to do what I thought was important.

Cons

Minimal feed back from direct manager, cutting costs meant less people in the store. Some positions received minimal hours or had one person in multiple departments.

Pros

It was nearby and steady employment. You were at least always sure that you were going to get to work at least 1 day a week.

Cons

The list is probably endless. Meijer primarily makes its business by not being Wal-mart. This however lets them get away with a lot that makes them worse than Wally-world in my opinion. Employee benefits are available but not pushed or made very aware to employees. It is made well known to you at any level that you are completely expendable, good work is very poorly rewarded yet they will come down on you with full fury if you do anything wrong. Every new rule that was passed while I worked there made life for the employees more and more difficult. If you absolutely and completely need a job, I would suggest Meijer, but otherwise, look elsewhere.

Pros

Uniforms are free once you meet the 90 day probation. People are friendly.

Cons

Management pays no attention to safety, equipment malfunctioning, writing up ppl when they have a Dr. notice of being off work when the injury happened at work. Too much work, not enough ppl to complete the list per shift. Doing the work that morning ppl should have done, getting written up because all the work wasn't finished at end of shift.
