Pros

HEB is very flexible with your school schedule and can also help with tuition. Shifts are flexible as well. 4 hour shifts or 8 hour shifts.

Cons

Although I did an excellent job and worked my tail off, I never could move up. I went to management several times and they agreed that I deserved to move up and promised to put me in the next training program but never did. When I left, some senior management approached me and were very upset I was leaving. I told them why and they had never heard from my direct manager. It was unfortunate because senior management was very effective and caring.

10% off HEB stuff. That's it...

Cons

NO FULL-TIME OFFER! The recruitment process at H-E-B Digital is deeply frustrating and appears to lack integrity. Despite having relevant internship experience and receiving positive feedback during the interview process, I found that the company’s hiring strategy seems entirely reliant on prioritizing individuals recently laid off from FAANG companies. It feels as though they are not genuinely interested in developing new talent or giving equal consideration to qualified candidates who don't fit that specific profile. Advice for Management: Be transparent with applicants regarding your hiring criteria. It is demoralizing to waste time and emotional energy interviewing when the process feels like a box-checking exercise. If you are not actually hiring, do not string candidates along with positive feedback. The current approach reflects poorly on the company’s values and brand. Recommendation: If you are not a recent layoff from a major tech firm, I would suggest looking elsewhere. It appears to be their business model to prioritize those specific candidates over others, regardless of your personal qualifications or positive performance during interviews.
