Pros

I have a job. Union.

Cons

Kroger used to value their employees and be a great company to work for, after covid they definitely quit caring about associates. Pay is middle if the road. The upper management does not care about employees or what happens in the stores.

Pros

They pay alright and of their medical benefits ONE of them is really good but you will be incentivized not to take that one.

Cons

Absolutely zero confidence in management. Very little information moves around that is sensible or even usable, meanwhile, they will spend a ludicrous amount of time having you make ridiculous arts and crafts projects in the off time. Hours subject to change CONSTANTLY. Hours WILL be cut and nothing you can do about it. NO UNION. They fight HARD against a Union and make it very clear during training and if you even bring it up you can be reprimanded in shady ways. Overall just a real disgusting place to have worked and left with an awful taste in my mouth. If you have ANY care or concern for your own mental health and sanity, do NOT enter into this horrible corporate fiasco of a business.

Pros

Interviews are fairly easy and you'll get a quick start date.

Cons

Primarily, they do not hire full time, so although they may choose to give you 40 hours per week, you won't qualify for any benefits until after a year of employment. Instead of offering competitive pay, they will low ball you and you'll have to fight to make more. They randomly cut hours for weeks at a time and blame it on corporate. You'll get mail offers for auto insurance and pet insurance but won't have medical, dental, vision, PTO, etc. until a year after employment. Stores are purposely understaffed and staff often work in very stressful conditions.
