Pros

There are none at all.

Cons

Literally everything: The horrible pay no matter what department you work for and I've been in a few. Management The sly way of doing things around the store. I.e. I just worked 7 days in a row and It's not considered overtime. They will put you down for a 5 hour and 45 minute shift when it's super busy so you don't get a second break. Holiday pay is a joke Staying open for most of the day on a Holiday is depressing The shoppers/rude people. The broken machines. I.e. Dicer has been broken for over a year and glues together more than once. Handle on the freezer door doesn't even exist. The favoritism. If you upset someone off they will get back at you, especially management. Erratic schedules The union. Hey why don't you do something for us? Even walking in the parking lot to get to work. Forget the stop signs put in speed bumps or even better would be metal spike that force the driver to proceed slowly. A piece of me dies every time I walk into the store.

Pros

good pay rate, associate discount on groceries, mostly good techs

Cons

Zero work life balance, unless you live to work. "Training" screams of "I don't care". They brag about how GREAT their pharmacist training is, but that was 20 years ago, today their 4 week great training has been shoved into ONE week of on-the-job training with zero follow up or concern that you can't possibly learn all you need in that time, then they shove you out the door. Training during a cyberattack that has nothing working? That's fine, you don't get any extra time despite the fact that you can't learn on a non-working system. Management BS is deep, such as "we want our employees to know why decisions are made" then no way to ask and none of the low level managers has any freaking clue as to why changing an address in the database was changed from just overtyping it to a 5 minute process of logging into a poorly written website to update - and you thought we were bad about it before! And they ask for feedback an entire ONCE a year, with no way of providing it before.
