Business outlook
Pros
- You’re going to get hours. Even if you suck, you’re going to get hours because every Kroger store is understaffed. - It’s relatively easy to transfer stores, and since Kroger is everywhere across the Midwest, you’re probably okay if you want to move. - Cheap insurance for yourself (no spousal coverage)
Cons
- Frequent use of the phrase “Everyone’s replaceable.” - Hires anyone and everyone and then wonders why it gets stuck with bad employees. - Has no concept of work-life balance; nothing is more important than the job, ever. - Union is useless. - Schedule changes at the drop of a hat. - Definitely not a merit-based promotional system; entirely how much rear end you kiss and when.
