Pros

Easy work, often with people at your level who just want to get along with everyone else. Part-time pay is good and working for Aisles Online is fun.

Cons

The time off you schedule is not actually scheduled off. Need every Wednesday night off? They'll agree to it when hiring you but will schedule you for it anyway and fire you for not showing up to work when you thought you weren't going to be scheduled. Management will fight and you'll get stuck in the middle. You also won't get trained very well and when you do something you see everyone else doing, you'll get in trouble for it. "Could you have at least told me so I could know and then I wouldn't do it?" Nope.

Pros

Hy-Vee is a great company that truly cares about the communities we serve. Our 14 fundamentals drive both the customer and employee experience, guiding how we treat and serve our customers and each other. Leadership actively seeks employee feedback and uses it to drive meaningful change across all locations. There is a wide variety of jobs and career opportunities in many different areas of the company from retail to supply chain, IT, marketing, and so many more. obust employee benefits include tuition assistance for degrees, certifications, and foundational learning at little to no cost to employees, and the company focuses on promoting from within for most leadership roles.

Cons

As a 24/7 retail business, scheduling can be demanding in some roles — though the variety of positions means there's flexibility to find the right fit. With a large, decentralized workforce spread across hundreds of locations, consistent employee communication is an ongoing area of focus and improvement.
