Pros

Hy-Vee offers its employees very flexible working hours. Almost all of the co-workers at this store are very friendly to work with. This is an alright place for a student in High School to work to earn some spending money.

Cons

The pay is horrible here. All non-management jobs are paid at or just above minimum wage, no matter how much experience you have or how long you have been working there. And for those that think you will be paid right once you get a management job, think again. The pay for a second assistant manager, which is what all managers start out as, is $10.00 an hour.

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”.
