Pros

Insurance was the cheapest around, 10% off all Kroger brand items and other Kroger affiliated brands. Building relationship bonds with your people.

Cons

Management is treated like crap so they treat you like crap. Management bullies you into working and if you don't, they never forget. Management wound so tight due to being over worked too! Kroger really fights the Union, which creates a rift in how things are managed. Kroger keeps taking away from their employees futures by reducing how much vacation time they can earn, reducing their benefits, removing Sunday pay and almost no incentive programs exist anymore. They set unrealistic goals for all employees and/or departments because a few people were able to do it in their locations. They cut hours so far that you have to lie, chest and steal to get your work completed by the unrealistic goals set by senior leadership.

Pros

Strong team environment with opportunities to build leadership skills. Fast-paced work keeps shifts engaging, and there is consistent opportunity for growth within the company. Customer interaction can be rewarding, and you gain valuable experience in operations, problem-solving, and team development.

Cons

Work-life balance can be challenging due to long hours and inconsistent scheduling. Expectations are high, but support and accountability from upper management can be inconsistent. Staffing shortages and high turnover create added stress, and communication between leadership levels is not always effective. Advancement opportunities can feel influenced more by favoritism and relationships than by performance or merit, which can be discouraging for employees who consistently deliver strong results.
