Pros

- Very professional attitude. - Dress Code is very professional and corporate environment. - Cafeteria food is great! and subsidized. There's also a Starbucks kiosk in the cateria. - Fun to work there. Fast paced. - People in general are courtious and "nice" to talk to. - Safeway scores high in associate diversity. - It is a Fortune 50 Company - Looks good on a resume. - Although culture is very casted (management vs othes), executives are very easy-going and "humble" at times. They wil mingle and talk to everyone.

Cons

- Benefits are some of the worst I have known - HR does not "like" to disclose information about certain employees' benefits such as maternity leave and others. Finding this kind of information takes 3-4 phone calls and makines you feel like you are trying to find out "secret information". - Bonus are only given to management level. - Company is very "casted" - big difference between management and everyone else. Management has preferred parking garage, specific floors for executives with restrictive access. -

Pros

Nothing at all, only work at Safeway if you're about to be literally homeless

Cons

Genuinely hellish work environment. Management is lazy and absent, customers are the most disrespectful and clueless I have ever encountered. Complete unrealistic labor allocation and expectations. As a PIC, I have to run 9 SCO robots, unlock cases for customers, perform transactions at Customer Service, and answer external phone calls. Customers rightly get frustrated at the complete lack of care by corporate, and take it out on employees.
