Pros

The work is easy if you're in decent shape. Pay was $17/hr, not bad for the area especially considering no experience or education is required. Hiring process was quick and easy. No drug test. Health insurance was decent according to full time employees. Will hire anyone, won't fire you if you keep showing up when scheduled. 10% off kroger brand items and double fuel points.

Cons

Demonstrate any degree of competence and they will give you more responsibility with no increase to your pay. Some of the employees were dead weight and management didn't address it. Veteran employees (one with 3 and the other with 9 years at that location) who were effectively shift leads were paid the same as me, a new hire. So outside of management there's no where to go. Schedule was constantly changing, no two weeks were the same. Difficult to become full time.

Pros

• Generally work with fantastic people. • Work is not difficult, and time flies when busy. • My bosses collaborated with me to create a schedule that worked, as I often had other commitments. • Overall, a pleasant work experience most days. Get good at what you do and you'll do fine.

Cons

• Some of the senior management was less friendly than others - as to be expected. • Days were very volatile; some could be extremely easy, and others could be a nightmare. • Scheduling was kept rather limited; although I was able to get the hours I wanted, often times management would look to cut hours from departments whenever possible, leaving less support.
