They overwork you due to unrealistic staffing cuts. There is a high expectation on standards and measurable goals that are difficult to make with little to no help. - Anonymous employee Safeway Employee Review

Pros

They are a leader when it comes to training. If there is a family emergency they are very supportive in your time of need.

Cons

The salary sounds good on paper until you find put you need to live for the job. Work life balance a a big ZERO. If you needed an accommodation for the work life balance( I have 2 young kids) they offered a demotion. They have management cut help so much to make a profit that you the salaried employee is expected to work unreasonable hours to achieve results.
