Pros
– Great work/life balance. You start work at 8:00 a.m. and leave at 5:00 p.m. and the corporate offices are right on the Boise Green Belt. – Entrepreneurial environment allows you to experiment and fail. – Opportunity for growth (mostly based on tenure but it's still there)
Cons
– Decentralized model with no clear vision. No one really knows what that means and the idea of what it could have been died with Joe Albertson. – If you challenge your manager, they will have no problem dismissing you. This didn't happen to me personally but with someone on the team. – Senior management may necessarily not be the most qualified. Just because they started working with the company bagging groceries 30 years ago, doesn't mean they know how to get the job done. They're out of touch with the current grocer marketplace.
