Pros

If you don’t mind fast-paced, unreasonable demands, and don’t have a life, then I guess Kroger will work. It’s not bad to start as long as you don’t be late constantly or be lazy. Not that kinda job.

Cons

Very High Stress, constant interaction with aggressive customers, management are conniving and deceitful, Union is completely broken as far as Local 1059 Central Ohio, in both President and members. Hours are being cut so far as to almost destroy every dept, and we all know if you have one lazy person who doesn’t care, (like most dept have more than 1) then the person who actually cares gets ripped. If you’re new, they’ll let them steal, but anyone older than 3 yrs and they will get you for accidentally taking a $1.79 comb(Had to defend a girl as I’m a Union Steward. A real shame). They will put more and more on as they continue to reduce hours in hope of taking in money. They just don’t care at all for either customer or employee. If they cared, they’d fire the lazy nobodies and protect the ones who care and get them the help they need, so that way no one’s going home tired and in danger of falling asleep on the road.
