Pros

Supervisor responsibilities, worked with people my age (lots of college students), fun environment, opportunity to advance to management (only promote within), team leaders are friendly and get to know their team members, and one can easily transfer between departments in the store.

Cons

Despite receiving supervisor responsibilities when being promoted to service coordinator, the minimal raise increase is a joke. Getting time off during the Christmas season and weekends is almost impossible. They started to cut hours when I left so holds were becoming more and more common in the service department.

Pros

It's a friendly work environment. I was given choices of which department/job I was interested in during the interview process. I was hired as a cashier and asked to be a Service Coordinator. My TL and Lines Leader are awesome, supportive and friendly. No surprises as far as how the job was described and the reality of the day to day. Training and support are outstanding compared to other retailers in the area.

Cons

Meijer is unionized; low pay with raises based on hours worked and although there is a clause in the contract that the company can give pay increases based on merit, it is not utilized. Good workers leave and less-than-stellar employees remain. Chain-wide the disciplinary system is poor; praise is rare and the TMAG system is negatively based. The amount of product that is thrown away on a daily basis is staggering, wasteful and extremely shameful.

Pros

I thought that it was a good company to work for at the time as a college student. You can be hired easily.

Cons

The job is not my dream job. It was only temporary while going to college. I left as soon as I could.
