Pros

Decent health benefits for Management

Cons

Low wages for associates, high turnover, too much work, too many changes too fast, all affecting customers who constantly complain about discontinued products they've always gotten, empty shelves appearing like Kroger is closing and they will have to start shopping the competitors. Mngmt. Is also stretched too much. Lots of them have and are looking for another job. They make it seem as though there are lost of opportunity for advancement not so. Unless, maybe you want to be an over worked, unappreciated Store Manager.

Pros

Every week I was excited to see what new challenge awaited me. Sometimes it wasn't so bad, and then some weeks it was overwhelming, but I did the best job I could, and everything usually turned out ok. It was a position that made me feel important, like I had a purpose.

Cons

The biggest was when the workload was too much for one person, and getting some help was not always an option. The biggest con was having to give up the position. I was only filling in for someone while she was on leave for surgery. Was supposed to only be for 3 months but I did it for 9 months and loved it ,ore than I ever thought I would.
