Great people, great place to work

Pros

Most or all of the positions are unionized and you're treated really well by the management. Fun place to work and feels like I'm doing something good on a day-to-day basis.

Cons

Working in customer service is tough and sometimes the policies that are set in place by the store as far as returns, etc. are subject to change based on how customers act.

It completely depends on your manager.

Pros

Good insurance (when you can get it) Can move around to different positions in the store

Cons

Happiness depends completely on the competence of your manager. Only guaranteed 20 hours a week, and insurance for non-union required 100 hours a month to get. You can be scheduled to close (until 11:00) and then scheduled to open (7:00) and get no overtime. Unless you explicitly request a weekend off, you can be scheduled to work every weekend in a year.

Pros

Benefits are a plus. Raises are based on clock hours not on performance. Chance to move up in within the Kroger company. Kroger has groceries across the united states so you can transfer and move if needed. Paid every week.

Cons

Starting rate for deli clerk is low for the work they do. Picking up slack from co workers who don't work as hard don't really get recognition or paid more if you work harder than others. Full time only for assistant and managers. Hours are different every week. Odd hours they give you. Have to be in one department for 6 months even if you don't like it before you can apply for a different department which isn't a 100% guarantee you will be able to switch.
