Business outlook
Pros
Was fun for a college job. I worked there part time to pay the bills. The best thing was the stack purchasing plan. Even though I was a part time college kid, I could put $20 a week toward buying Kroger stock at no additional brokerage fees. You could buy partial shares. The stock even split.
Cons
Could make more working at a factory, but at least it was air conditioned. Being a college town, I felt that some of the management was discouraging towards staying in college. My boss wanted me to stay and keep working at Kroger. She was a long time employee. She said that after 20 years I could make $12.75 an hour like her!!!
