Pros

~interacting daily with mostly friendly customers ~a guaranteed but quick break every couple hours ~non-sedentary work kept my body moving ~exposure and education to healthy lifestyle and food choices was beneficial ~9 minute grace period for each shift preventing you from being marked late/tardy was very nice and understanding incase of traffic or other instances in life out of your control

Cons

~department managers did not give positive reinforcement but shift leads usually did ~break was ten minutes and store was so large by time you signed out for break and got to break area you used 1.5 minutes of your break ~standing long periods of time and bagging heavy grocery bags while store support shift leads and store support managers talked at customer service booth and didn't help you was frustrating

Pros

They offered good health insurance plans. They also had a good salary and position ladder.

Cons

Upper management and HR at this location are extremely ineffective at problem solving. If you are a worker here or plan to be, for your sake please document everything and have written and logged communication of incidents. Be careful with fictitious, unfair, and biased write ups. Ask management to be clear about communication and have them provide a written statement of their complaints and make sure they give you the opportunity to rectify mistakes that happen due to inadequate and inconsistent training. They will pull you upstairs with verbal accusations so that they can control the narrative. Management will work together to gaslight and get you fired if they do not like you. Management also has favorites that they look out for and turn a blind eye to. They are not effective at correcting behavior from team members, shift leads, etc.
