Pros

I liked my coworkers, stable employment, flexible schedule in my department.

Cons

While my coworkers where all good people the majority lacked work ethics and common sense. The pay scale is terrible for lower level employees so if you can't move up to a better position you are stuck making barely above min. wage.

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.
