Pros

+ Pay was decent(I started at 8.50 and got bumped to 9.00 after my probation period by my manager. Didn't stay long enough to find out how much pay raise I would have gotten at my annual review.) + I found the work to be pretty straight forward. + I found the majority of my fellow associates enjoyable with the exception of a select few. I found my managers(we had two different ones during my time there and they were both odd)to be strange but enjoyed the assistant manager, customer service manager and fresh food manager.

Cons

+ When you work here if you need to call out you have to find your own replacement. I ALWAYS filled in for people even doing an 18 hour shift one time to accommodate someone. But the one time I needed someone to cover me in the 7 months that I worked there NO ONE could step in. + Sometimes the other people I worked with could be really petty. A lot of gossiping about other people when they weren't around. I didn't partake in this. + No body besides management is considered full time. All the associates worked an average of 30-38 hours a week.

Pros

Great coworkers, everyone was super friendly as a pleasure to work with. My managers and coworkers were all super personable people and I genuinely enjoyed working with them. The ESOP was good historically.

Cons

They have been going through a soft layoff for years. RTO mandate was weaponized against employees, multi-year promotion/hiring freeze, constant scare tactics being used by senior leadership, etc. Lines of code was being used as a metric to judge engineers, and no one knew if having more or less was better. We were told it was to "build a story", if your lines of code varied significantly between months then your review would reflect that. No serious engineering department does that, this is just an arbitrary number they can point to if they want to fire you. If you argued against it, you were seen as insubordinate.
