Pros

Doesn't require much to get a job here

Cons

What used to be a positive customer service environment has disintegrated into a workforce of busywork and disgruntled employees stemming from a management team filled with more blame related tactics then positive innovation in the grocery industry

Pros

Good experience, ability to move to difference parts of the IT organization in order to get a well rounded skill set. They bring in enough new products/platforms so the opportunity to gain the knowledge is there, just wait, they will buy that too.

Cons

The salary doesn't keep up with your growth and neither does the promotions.

Pros

The only reason I worked here for so long was the free healthcare. And it was good too, blue cross blue shield. After 4 years it increased to $10 but that covered me and my child. It was great.

Cons

Horrible management, they want work to be your top priority so forget family and college if you're trying to better yourself. And once your topped out, if you won't accept a higher position for the same pay, they'll do anything they can to make you quit. They are also terrible about giving days off, especially Sundays for those of us who go to church.
