Pros

This is a fun store to work at, it has everything! It's like shopping and working at the same time. I worked in the home and housewares department. It was nice to not have to go to the back to get stock, you only downstock from the top shelf so you can take care of your customers and be out on the floor the whole time. If I could I would have stayed there to work! I loved Fred Meyer!

Cons

I didn't like that they switch your schedule every week and you don't know when you would be working until the week before. Wished I could have stayed and not gotten laid off because Christmas was over. I was a temporary seasonal employee. They just didn't have a position for me at that time and I would have had to wait till spring to get hired back.

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
