Pros

Competetive pay for retail/grocery, bonuses every six months. Fairly open with scheduling, even for full-time employees. Department management is generally friendly and personable. A large emphasis on teamwork between departments, for the most part.

Cons

Management that blatantly plays favorites, doesn't care about anyone but themselves, and are constantly telling lies. They seem more than happy to keep employees who consistently fail to meet their incredibly low labor standards, while firing ones who pull their weight the first chance they get.

Pros

You get paid every week.

Cons

• They talk to you like you're stupid. • Their tone becomes more aggressive when you don't brown nose them. • They don't lead by example nor implement any teamwork. • They make daily operations more difficult to complete as a flex. • They disguise their racism towards employees as company policy institution. • They become spiteful when you don't fall in line and take out their frustration on your workers while store management look the other way. • They talk negatively about you in group chats and emails. • They pretend to be inefficient when they don't want to help. • They harass & imprison your workers as soon as you clock out (by eyewitness accounts). • Management will sabotage your evaluation, hire special needs people for critical thinking jobs, & accept underperforming associates from other stores just to save money. • Higher-ups will deny qualified applicants employment while conspiring to hire the children of old classmates who purposefully show up to work late. • Store management will physically assault minors who steal on the premises and act openly racists to shoppers of color.
