Pros

Working at Fred Meyer has some positives, like flexible scheduling, steady hours, and opportunities to move into different departments.

Cons

However, one of the biggest downsides is management. In some stores, the managers are not professional in the way they treat employees. Workers have reported that managers can be rude, dismissive, or disrespectful, especially when the store is busy or short-staffed. Instead of offering guidance or support, they may talk down to employees or ignore concerns, which creates a stressful and uncomfortable work environment. Communication can also feel inconsistent, leading to confusion and frustration.

Pros

Job can be fun and interesting Always something new to learn Lots of personal fulfillment as a manager when things go right

Cons

Unsupportive upper management Toxic work culture, unpaid overtime is rewarded and even expected or forced, even to the tune of multiple weeks in a row with no days off when you are salaried. They claim to support work life balance but even the smallest effort to set boundaries is heavily punished. Not paid as much as we should be for everything we have to do and deal with
