Pros

All of the employees are relaxed, helpful and listen to your needs. The pay is better then at other grocery chains.

Cons

Your interaction with customers is totally scripted and sometimes uncomfortable (ie pressuring someone to buy more product). They are only aiming to please the 'secret shoppers' and if you mess up you can get in big trouble. Managers track your transactions and post the times for all employees, meaning there is a lot of pressure to "be number 1."

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.
