Pros

The discount. The quality of the products we sell.

Cons

The CEO is out of touch with the team members in store's doing the work. The expectations with the miminmum staff we actually have are unrealistic. They have lost several top notch employees within the last 3 years who either were in management or assistant store directors. The CEO doesn't like anyone smarter than him around or strong women. This used to be a great company to work for. The store directors who offer no push back are still there. The others, well.

Pros

I’ve had to work for two metropolitan markets, one in Tacoma (temp) and one in gig harbor. Both had great people working there. I made good friends there and I felt very welcome. Employees who work there get a 20% discount in everything which is nice because the food quality there is great, there’s always something new to try there!

Cons

I would say the pay isn’t great; it’s a step up from working at Albertsons or any other entry job, but it’s not super livable unless you work there for a long time, 5 years plus.
