Some good, some bad - Sr. Director Albertsons Companies Employee Review

Pros

Big company with a number of positives. Lots of locations, availability to move around. Many good mid level leaders that care about their people and the work. Good place for diversity, maybe even have taken it too far where that is a focus beyond reasonableness, but if diversity is a hot button for you, great place for that.

Cons

As with any big company, there can be a lot of bureaucracy. Most areas are decent, but the HR side at the corporate level is painful. Slow and difficult to accomplish anything, and expect that raises will basically be just cost of living (have been for the last 5 years) no matter how you perform.

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.
