Fun, active, fast paced job. Low supervision, very independent job duties. Employee discounts on groceries. Company provided uniform. Get to work out doors.

Cons

Low pay and hours. No benefits. Inconsistent work schedule, with some late shifts. Have to work weekends with some late Sunday night shifts.

Pros

Nothing at all, only work at Safeway if you're about to be literally homeless

Cons

Genuinely hellish work environment. Management is lazy and absent, customers are the most disrespectful and clueless I have ever encountered. Complete unrealistic labor allocation and expectations. As a PIC, I have to run 9 SCO robots, unlock cases for customers, perform transactions at Customer Service, and answer external phone calls. Customers rightly get frustrated at the complete lack of care by corporate, and take it out on employees.
