      Pros

      Always have work, good benefit package, but im under older contract, you get to learn good social and work skills.

      Cons

      Lack of qualified help!! Sad to see the ship sinking, Its going down like the titanic, The customer, ya the ones that pay for my lively hood are becoming frustrated, as the company cuts the help, they cut the sales, Im seeing it first hand. It just seems that its being run aground intentionally. So it makes it real hard to see the people you have provided great service to for so many years, say see ya. Because the stores are falling apart and its not because of lazy workers, its because they are cutting in the wrong places. That makes it a real downer to see.And I know, we have to show a profit to the stockholders, but when your cutting labor and sales are plumeting, you are not cutting labor!!! Hello Econ.101..

      Pros

      The union is the only good reason to work at Safeway. There are some good co-workers but that's about it.

      Cons

      Management never recognizes good work. If you don't follow their rules, which change on a daily basis you don't have much of a future. Days off are granted grudgingly, if at all.
