Pros

There is a sense of community & camaraderie in the workplace.

Cons

Contrary to what most believe, HEB is a very typically run corporate retail store. Many times I have found suitable candidates for a roll, but when management is asked about these potential candidates, they have told me that they only put up the job listing for external purposes, and that they never wanted to hire anybody in the first place. Another thing that I did not like at all, is the blatant lying on job posts. As a recruiter I did not have the power to design my own job postings, but they would put down a role as part time for example but would then tell me that they only wanted full timers and so I had to interview candidates that came in for part time rules but we’re told that a full-time role was available. There are also many other things that HEB did that I found very shady, but I feel like I’ve given enough of an example of how working at HEB was. Due to this, and a host of other factors, I eventually put in my two weeks for HEB. I would absolutely not recommend working at HEB.

Pros

There were no pros at all.

Cons

My experience at the Frisco location was largely negative due to the store leadership team, headed by Stacie Sorenson. I found the management approach to be unsupportive and at times created a stressful work environment. I often felt singled out and treated differently because of my background and appearance, which made me feel uncomfortable and unwelcome during my internship. Pay was not competitive compared to similar employers. Scheduling was often inconsistent and difficult to plan around. In my experience, HR tended to support store leadership rather than adequately addressing employee concerns. The quality of the internship experience varies greatly depending on the store and management team. There can be resentment from some employees toward interns, particularly from those who were interested in the program but were not selected. Communication, mentorship, and support were not at the level I expected from a company that promotes its internship program so heavily.
