Pros

Financially stable company who cares about it's employees. Fair pay with excellent benefits. If your willing to work for it there is definately room for advancement, especially if you are willing to move. In my experience Hy-Vee also does a real nice job of hiring from within for job openings. So if there is a position at another location closer to home, you have a fair oportunity at getting that job.

Cons

Being that it's retail it gets easy to put in some very long hours. This isn't a negative against Hy-Vee it's just what the job is. As long as you know this going in you'll be fine. You are rewarded for your time with a fair paycheck and good benefits.

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

Hy-Vee is a great company that truly cares about the communities we serve. Our 14 fundamentals drive both the customer and employee experience, guiding how we treat and serve our customers and each other. Leadership actively seeks employee feedback and uses it to drive meaningful change across all locations. There is a wide variety of jobs and career opportunities in many different areas of the company from retail to supply chain, IT, marketing, and so many more. obust employee benefits include tuition assistance for degrees, certifications, and foundational learning at little to no cost to employees, and the company focuses on promoting from within for most leadership roles.

Cons

As a 24/7 retail business, scheduling can be demanding in some roles — though the variety of positions means there's flexibility to find the right fit. With a large, decentralized workforce spread across hundreds of locations, consistent employee communication is an ongoing area of focus and improvement.
