Waste of time - Courtesy Clerk/Bagger Albertsons Companies Employee Review

Pros

Unionized, health and safety is a big deal, benefits... if you're a teenager in high school or have nothing better to do it's easy money.

Cons

Courtesy clerks are treated like garbage and unfeeling robots. Your coworkers will claim to be sick when they're not, repeatedly, and the management won't care. They will come into work high. Nobody will care. They will try to get fired and nothing will come of it. If you work hard, you get shafted with more responsibility at no additional pay. Your merit is meaningless otherwise. The benefits are largely for lifers, you're lucky to see a dime of it.

Pros

good pay rate, associate discount on groceries, mostly good techs

Cons

Zero work life balance, unless you live to work. "Training" screams of "I don't care". They brag about how GREAT their pharmacist training is, but that was 20 years ago, today their 4 week great training has been shoved into ONE week of on-the-job training with zero follow up or concern that you can't possibly learn all you need in that time, then they shove you out the door. Training during a cyberattack that has nothing working? That's fine, you don't get any extra time despite the fact that you can't learn on a non-working system. Management BS is deep, such as "we want our employees to know why decisions are made" then no way to ask and none of the low level managers has any freaking clue as to why changing an address in the database was changed from just overtyping it to a 5 minute process of logging into a poorly written website to update - and you thought we were bad about it before! And they ask for feedback an entire ONCE a year, with no way of providing it before.
