Pros

Kroger has a discount and some decent benefits

Cons

It is a poorly run company. The upper management treats you like a child and plays games - very unprofessional- they don’t pay well at all given their hours and expectations. They promise help but half the time your help quits, gets fired or has no idea what to do. They have no problem making you run the entire clinic without help - then wonder why you are not "driving in visits" or completing charting, you also will have customers complain because you are behind on time and no one is at the desk. There is ZERO work life balance - have kids or a life outside of it? Forget it - they will only belittle and not appreciate you. Over the past few years I watched them desperately hire nurse practitioners not fit for the role and again your help - the turnover it unreal and they dont care about it. Oh and if you raise one of the above concerns - the target will be on you - management is into gossip and going behind backs - also your safety is not a concern either

Pros

Great benefits at a reasonable cost. First year you get 2 weeks vacation, 5 PTO days, and 5 Health and Wellness days. Loved the hourly (union) people I worked with at various locations. They become your second family

Cons

- Crazy schedule. You will be either scheduled to work a 7-5, 12-10, or a 9-7 depending on the location. And even when the schedule is posted for the period it typically changes week to week, so do not bother making plans. And get ready for 5-10 closes in a row then opening the next day. -9 times out of 10 you never get to use your earned time off due to circumstances at the store you are assigned to. And yes, you will lose them they do not accrue. -If you are lucky enough to be assigned at a store with a strong store manager then things are different, but if not, get ready to blamed for every failure of the store, even when the labor model continues to be cut to the point that you are lucky if you have 2 people in a department and someone from corporate walks in and wants to know why the departments are not set. -Endless micro-managing. Your day is mapped out what you should be doing verses what you know you should be doing. It is check the box that that the "task" is completed when in fact there is no one to complete it, except you. Ergo that is why many just "fudge" it.
