Pros

Used to be a good place to work. Good people, good balance, nice gym at corporate campus, good value and diversity. But this is all seems to be a thing of the past.

Cons

Bought by Albertsons with backing from Cerberus. It is all downhill at the moment. People are meat poppets getting moved and replaced and walked out. Lots of uncertainty. Moral is super low. People are running for the door. Id say stay away until the dust settles then we can see what this thing looks like. Right now it looks like a very old school company approach to management.

Pros

Friendly and helpful colleagues, weekly pay and flexible schedule

Cons

When it is busy, it is very busy. Lunch/Break may get pushed back or even denied in extreme cases because there is no one to cover for you.
