Pros

Benefits and pay are average/good depending on your specific job, facilities are clean and orderly. If you like Unions, Teamsters is the union at SuperValu

Cons

Everything looks good about this place in the beginning which is what attracted me to Supervalu...but then, once you're there for a few weeks/months you see the layers of wierd politics and management is very passive aggressive, the union here is worthless...I don't recommend buying into the idea that you are being represented/protected here. Management loves to write people up here and document any little mistake because of the union politics...be prepared to bite your tongue a lot here if you choose to work here.

Pros

Most people there are hard-working and function well as a team. Plenty of opportunity as old systems are bursting at the seams & need to be replaced.

Cons

Work/life balance is way off. Work 10 hours/day plus 24/7/365 on-call. Measly 6 holidays/year, but warehouses don't all close on those.
