Pros

- Store discount for employees. - Good dental and health insurance coverage. - Casual dress code.

Cons

- You basically have to live and breathe Hy-Vee to get promoted. - Promotions are mostly based on how long you’ve been there, not on your skills or qualifications. - It takes five years to be fully vested. - The quarterly bonus is nearly worthless and depends on income earned that quarter. - There are managers in place who simply don’t have the credentials or experience to be in those roles.

Pros

I really enjoyed my coworkers and the management of the store. There were a handful of people who worked there at the time who weren't necessarily my favorite, but overall the team was good.

Cons

There we no significant cons. The pay is not the highest, but these are mainly entry level jobs.

Pros

Paid breaks. Can be lazy and get the same pay as a hard worker.

Cons

Your high efforts are not rewarded. Benefits only include the time you put into retail that can be considered experience. Although you have the title for a specific position you will still be forced to complete tasks of another position. Although I was a checker, I was also put on hot food line, samples, cart duty, cleaning bathrooms, cleaning spills, watching self check out, stocking, and many more. Any sense of enjoyment with other coworkers gets shut down quick by management. Availability can be ignored by management. Lots of drama with coworkers. No penalty for inappropriate and unprofessional work. Management cares about business more than employees even though it is “employee owned”.
