Former Employee – worked at Sobeys

ProsGood company to work for, nice people all around, compatible benefit package and pension plan, have chance to take professional training.

ConsNot easy to get promoted. Head office is in a small town. Promotions are a little haphazard (in job experience and work ethic not always a guarantee over less experienced and less qualified people)

Advice to Senior ManagementMost stores have very competent leadership and managers that genuinely care about their employees, but in some cases the management has a tendency to focus more on the job than the employee.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend
