Pros

you get some good experience that other employers value.

Cons

Pay sucks. Hours suck. Unit Managers are mostly mean and don't care about a co-managers homelife. They do not value education and promote a lot of people who would not make it at other retailers. You have to check stores on Christmas when closed so you cannot travel very far. You will work almost every weekend. You will work till 11, drive an hour to get home and then have to be there again at 7am at least a few times a week. You will never be able to coach your kids sports teams cause they wont let you have off to do it. Forget about attending Church. Please do not fall for the lies they might tell you, Kroger will work you to death and for very little pay.

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.
