Pros

The only pros of working at Kroger is that you get paid weekly. This helps in maintaining your budget on a day to day basis instead of relying on only two day of the month in which you get paid. Besides that, if you're not full time then you get zero benefits whatsoever. The co-workers were generally nice however.

Cons

Poor scheduling, low hours, extremely low pay. This tied in with bad working conditions (especially for courtesy clerks) plus a poorly managed store in my personal experience lead to a dreadful ten months working at a place where the employee's needs were rarely taken care. I witnessed people who have hit a dead end in their careers and that is extremely depressing. Extremely glad that I left that place and now I couldn't be happier.

Pros

• Generally work with fantastic people. • Work is not difficult, and time flies when busy. • My bosses collaborated with me to create a schedule that worked, as I often had other commitments. • Overall, a pleasant work experience most days. Get good at what you do and you'll do fine.

Cons

• Some of the senior management was less friendly than others - as to be expected. • Days were very volatile; some could be extremely easy, and others could be a nightmare. • Scheduling was kept rather limited; although I was able to get the hours I wanted, often times management would look to cut hours from departments whenever possible, leaving less support.
