Business outlook
Pros
Fairly flexible scheduling for students. Fairly positive working atmosphere in most departments although this is not uniform. Overall it is decent and fairly low stress job for non management employees. Customer service focused and most store patrons are happy to be shopping at Meijer stores.
Cons
Pay scale is quite low even for the type of work when compared to similar companies although benefits are decent if needed (many students don't). Union seems more of a hindrance to both the company operations and to employees themselves in many ways. There is a high employee turnover, although a solid job for students I seems like it would be a tough place to make a career out of.
