Pros

the company cares about the safety of the guests and the associates ~ it means a lot that they have been proactive taking steps to guard against the spread of Covid Having come from another grocery company the differences are night and day ~ positive minded teammates, great benefits, people who take pride in their performance ~ I could go on and on

Cons

there is opportunities for advance but it doesn't happen overnight ~ also some of our guests are still very touchy about wearing a mask and we feel it's best for everyone!

Some pros but definitely more cons

Pros

You occasionally meet great people. The pay is decent for what it is. Meaning, a cashier job at any other company would definitely make less. However, I do feel like we should be paid more given that we’re working through a pandemic and deal with rude customers whose entire goal is to belittle minimum wage workers.

Cons

Where can I start? Communication within management is severely lacking. Middle management has a serious problem with favoritism, and in all honesty it’s always towards men. At my store they specifically brought in a female PIC only to add diversity to the management team. Within my three years of working there I’ve noticed an ongoing trend. Men are favorited, they move up quicker, and receive all the praise. At orientation we are told to be ourselves, to have fun, to be genuine, however, if you don’t have that bubbly fake enthusiastic personality, you won’t get anywhere. Honestly the whole “positive” mindset is so toxic and damaging to your mental health. I’ve never felt so depressed and despite being in constant communication with management and pulling my weight, it often goes unnoticed.

Great Company Overall

Pros

Nugget is non-union but treats us just as well, if not better, than a large unionized grocery store. The pay is good and the room for advancement is always there as well. They're a very generous company to work for as well as they've paid us hazard pay through the whole pandemic and they provide a 401k and medical benefits. Management always tries to maintain a positive and friendly attitude and that it turn really affects employee morale which helps to foster a very nice work environment. Its always busy as well so there's always hours available!

Cons

Middle management (PIC's) tend to play favorites with staff which can be annoying. They also tend to micro-manage instead of trusting that grown adults can do their jobs. There's also a lot of workplace dating and flings. The guests can pretentious jerks sometimes since a large demographic of Nugget's guests are yuppie's and retired folks with money.
