Pros

-Co-workers -Benefits are pretty good

Cons

-Good ol boys club, operates very old school -values how long you have worked at hy-vee over experience (this is a direct saying from pervious ceo randy) -favoritism -watch your pto, had a problem of some vac time being paid out, never got the actually money for it even though on paper it says they paid -micromanagement, this comes from all the from the top -upper management doesn’t own up to mistakes -is not honest with employees - took away employee discount, then brought it back but employees can only use it once a week(10% off), this is a joke, on top of that they were trying to tell employees that other places don’t give discounts, haha that’s hilarious cuz it’s not true -department managers get blamed for upper managements mistakes - terrible compensation -takes advantage of good working employees -too many hands in the cookie jar -useless positions at corporate office -low pay -store managers can tell employees how to take their vacation time, HR and/or upper management does nothing. There are store managers that will ONLY let you use your vacation time in week increments

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”.
