Pros

Always hiring, decent wages depending on position and years of service (100% due to a strong union [UFCW]), many decent managers and co-workers, discounts, ability to transfer to WA, ID, or AK, great first job to gain good customer service skills and training.

Cons

High turnover, Fred Meyer thrives on the phrase, "It's not what you know, it's who you know," as a result of that philosophy the ranks of lower and middle management are filled with terribly unintelligent, dull, and uncaring micromanaging drones.

Pros

Fred Meyer has a great corporate structure, with good people in place from top to bottom. They treat their employee's well, offer good incentives, have tons of resources and invest money back into their stores with regular remodels, product upgrades and innovative ways to make the customer experience better.

Cons

While Fred Meyer has many good programs in place, Kroger (who owns Fred Meyer) likes to screw with things a little bit. Often, they implement new programs or ways of doing things that just don't fit wor work well in Fred Meyer. Fred Meyer also provides slightly below average pay and does not have good work/home balance support.
