Pros

- food discount - Meeting and befriending many cool people

Cons

- Rude customers -The CEO/his family is equally rude and you'll be expected to bend over backwards for them even though you don't know what they look like. They'll just come up and say that they are the brother/sister of the CEO - incompetent managers: They make more work for you than help you. I had to figure out how to fit a bunch of flowers into our side of the cooler and couldn't even go to the bathroom for a minute because the then manager couldn't figure out how to wrap flowers.

Pros

Better work experience and pay than other grocery stores. Management is very involved in the day-to-day; they are always walking the floor. They can be very helpful at times and provide good support when a team is short-staffed or rushed. Most of the other employees are nice and easy to work with, but they can be a bit cliquey.

Cons

Management is very involved in the day-to-day, and they are always walking the floor. They can be incredibly critical and punishing for small issues. Beneath the guise of being a "family," competitiveness is often encouraged, especially among team leaders. Management often plays favorites, strongly reprimanding some for things outside of their control, while being overly forgiving of others for genuine issues. Team leaders are also given much more responsibility than at larger retail stores, for only slightly better pay. I often felt overworked and underappreciated. The holiday bonus is a gift card to the store, the value of which is subtracted from your paycheck for that week. The CEO is a bad leader; senior management often criticizes his choices behind his back, and he can be very retaliatory. It is a quality he passes down through the company, prioritizing loyalists over good businesspeople.
