Kroger reviews about "manager"

Everything else from the pay to the corporate office purposefully redistricting around our store right before closing it. This meant the next closest store in our district was an hour away, and the company was only required to offer jobs to all employees in the same district.

High turnover rate, occasional cold communication, poor work/life balance, bad work days and hours, no room for professional growth, outdated technology, no pay increase aside from inflation-countering raises with an endless increase in responsibilities.

Lower pay but fine for entry level

Manger’s are hit or miss. Having a nice manager goes a long way but a bad one is a thorn in your side.

- My manager's manager was really mean to me - the job kinda sucks + it gets really hot - the HR person wasn't helpful at all in helping me get benefits for school

Abysmal allocation of hours to do the job. Job takes 16 hours you will get 8 because the multibillion dollar corporation cant afford to give you the proper amount of time to do the job. Tasks are added every period and hours allocated to do the tasks are reduced because of "efficiency improvements." Expectations are for everything to be flawless from open to close. You spend half your shift taking pictures of your department and store as proof that workers did something. The hourly pay is absolutely horrendous given the expectations the company has. My hourly pay barely covers expenses to rent a one bedroom apartment. The second you stop moving an alarm goes off and a manager shows up in your department to point out everything wrong and wonders why you aren't moving. Raises are never more than 25¢/hr/year. The company acts like its on the verge of liquidation at all times. Have you done your Fresh Start yet today!
