Secret shopper is a joke...

Pros

Benefits are good especially health insurance. ESOP is good also if you are a full time employees or have been employed for a long time.

Cons

Why does Winco waste money in secret shopper. Give this money to employees as raises instead. Why do they take the secret shopper side of the story - take their words vs employees? If you get a bad report from secret shopper - you will have to take their "World Class Service" training again. Second time you have another bad report - you have to stand at the door to greet customers and the next one is disciplinary action up to termination. Winco being an employee owned is a joke since employees don't have a say on how policies are made nor get raises unless union stores get raises first then Winco follows just like a puppy instead of being a leader in the community.

Would Never step foot in another Winco.

Pros

For what it is, decent health benefits.

Cons

Management treats anyone going to school like they're not being a team player for wanting better things in life, Not sure for all stores but religious values were pushed constantly by upper management and often times helped get promotions, Management blames their failed attempts at sales on employees not working hard enough, Pretty chill if you work in the morning but evening and night crew have to make up all the work that didn't get done no matter what leading to high stress levels.

Pros

At least I have a job.

Cons

Terrible pay with no possibility of merit raises for hard workers. Insurance doesn't cover enough of the medical problems you will develop from working here. No consistency with work schedule. Near impossible to work full-time. Employees are penalized for being sick, which means customer food is being prepared by contagious employees. Work is unrealisticly physically demanding and damaging. Workers compensation practices border on illegal. Same-sex families are not offered equal benefits.
