Pros

The insurance is suppose to be good but they drag their feet getting you signed up after becoming eligible.

Cons

Low pay, new hiring waves creates fight for hours. When the new hires quit you get called every day off. Schedule is very random. Hard to get the benifits which is not good during coronavirus.

Good insurance benefits as well as stock in the company, 401k, and plenty of promotion opportunities.

Cons

Company not seeing growth like it used to, not adapting to the times (little to no modern technology adaptation), bad training system, generic selection of items, the list goes on.

Pros

The benefits are some of the best, especially for part-time employees. Their ESOP program is industry leading and if you're willing to make WinCo your career, you'll retire very comfortably. One great thing is that it's a great entry level position that will give you many different and useful skills in the workforce. Additionally, depending on your department, the managers will work with your schedule. Personally, I worked 3 days a week while I was going to school. There is opportunity for growth if you want it, typically it's pretty easy to move up into the MIT or MA positions but you have to be willing to relocate.

Cons

The biggest con about working for WinCo is the salary. You will start at just above minimum wage and increases are based on hours worked. So if you are a student and can only work 20 hours a week, it will take you a very long time to move up in your steps. If you can consistently work 40 hours (and you get scheduled 40 hours) it typically translates to 1 raise per year. Another con about the company is there is a lot of turnover and you will quickly find yourself having the longest tenure and be in charge of training new hires.
