Pros

The people that you meet are simply amazing. You work close with these people and some become part of your family.

Cons

You have almost no control over your work life balance. Moving up to management you expect to get this and the higher in management you go the less time you have with your family and friends. I just left the company and I haven't been this happy in the 11 years that I was there. Kroger has completely ruined this family based company for their own gain. They are losing very experienced people before they are able to get the replacements trained. Good luck with the future.

Pros

If you have good relationship with your manager and you can trust them to have your back, it is an amazing place to work, and you will find success easy.

Cons

If you have lost the confidence of your manager, or have bad communication with your manager, it makes it very hard to be seen and be successful.

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
