Pros

The benefits are great. the people are generally great. Enough support staff in place to help you with smaller issues. Free "healthy" snack and coffee on a regular basis. Everyone is more than happy to help one another as they can. Generally embraces new technologies. Comfy chairs for everyone!

Cons

Managers often showed signs they were only doing things due to upper management pushing them too. Daily meetings where many repeat the same thing on a daily basis. Too few people for the amount of work needing completed. Very little organization and very little guidance in the Technology Departments. Management is generally not approachable. Newly placed cubicles leave a lot to be desired in terms of privacy and space.

Pros

Hy-Vee is a great company that truly cares about the communities we serve. Our 14 fundamentals drive both the customer and employee experience, guiding how we treat and serve our customers and each other. Leadership actively seeks employee feedback and uses it to drive meaningful change across all locations. There is a wide variety of jobs and career opportunities in many different areas of the company from retail to supply chain, IT, marketing, and so many more. obust employee benefits include tuition assistance for degrees, certifications, and foundational learning at little to no cost to employees, and the company focuses on promoting from within for most leadership roles.

Cons

As a 24/7 retail business, scheduling can be demanding in some roles — though the variety of positions means there's flexibility to find the right fit. With a large, decentralized workforce spread across hundreds of locations, consistent employee communication is an ongoing area of focus and improvement.
