Weis Markets reviews

Hours are terrible. I've had shifts where I closed at 11 at night and was expected in at 6 in the morning. They don't pay overtime. However, they yell if you leave without completing your, and sometimes your co-workers, work. Being mid management means your responsible for everyone, even what you don't have control over. Hours get cut horribly when management wants a bonus. You can't survive off this job. As a college student, there's times I don't get enough to even pay mediocre weekly expenses. Wage increase nearly nonexistent. Its an extra 40 cents for the promotion, and they start at minimum. 15 cents yearly after that. For cashiers and stock its even worse. No vacation, holiday pay, or overtime pay (even if you work the hours) for part time employees. Options for full time nearly nonexistent. As a supervisor I'm still part time. Management constantly yells, never steps up to help, and hides. They will stand there and yell at you to help a customer while you're with another customer, rather than do something themselves. Shifts can be extremely long or extremely short. I've had a 3 hour shift before, and a 10 hr shift. This is with open availability. There are times they will schedule 12 days in a row. Store never staffed correctly. There is never enough people, but management always piles on what they want done. Management is required to change every 3 years. No stability. Customers always unhappy.

Management never seems to have its head on their shoulders, I hear conflicting ideas from the various levels, and they rarely listen to veteran employees. They tried to push products that current employees knew wouldn't sell. Giant was never sunshine and rainbows, but it began to feel heartless. Par for the course with larger chains you might say, but if you want to work in a grocery store, there are better places to try first. I've shopped there many times since leaving, and while the store looks nice, employees do not.
