Kroger reviews

Long hours with no lunch or bathroom breaks. Limited technician help and constantly cutting technician hours. Upper management focused on bombarding pharmacists with numbers performance instead of focusing on patient care. New initiatives are not pharmacy driven and therefore add extra work pharmacists. This extra work takes time away from patient care and is being initiated while technician hours are being cut.

Fringe benefits have been cut drastically even in the last few years - Bonuses are impossible to earn, raises have recently been capped to 2% annually (or less), no more raises for being promoted to other stores, no more outings or any other type of apprectiation shown by upper management, you MUST be political or have "connections" in upper division/G.O. management to move up with the company, even if you consistently get great evaluations by your store manager. Favorites in the zone are the norm by the DM, who consistently favors attractive females over the rest. Dealing with the union is a pain, especially with subpar hourly employees who know how to protect themselves with the system, turnover is high, and there is a constant clash between upper management in MERCHANDISING and OPERATIONS, which results in a total disconnect to the stores, being caught in the middle.
