Moving up is very easy if you work hard and don't argue with questionable rules and regulations. breaks are very short only giving those one tens on a 4 or 6 hour shift, and 2 tens on an eight-hour shift. If you want more hours be ready to be called in on your days off all the time. Most are hired as part-time only so hours will change every week. First, if you value having set hours you won't get that unless you are a key/manager. I will give this company credit for showing me many skills and giving me 4 years of steady pay, but management ruined that for most people. I first started back in high school and I felt like I learned so much about how grocery worked. I was transferred to one of the side departments even though I did not have my food handler's card and told in a dark room by store management that I was being punished for my mediocre work ethic. Although I am a very hard worker who took this work more seriously than I should've, this negatively affected my job due to the fact that store management almost never stepped onto the sales floor to develop their own opinion about my work and instead was in the office most of the time. Unfortunately in my experience, one of the managers reported to store management that I was performing poorly when I did not welcome their inappropriate advances. Employees are easily replaceable, the company will continue to run with or without you so make yourself a priority.Įach store has its own unique set of managers that directly affect each employee's experience. I learned that hard work is important however health is even more so. This is a great first job since customer service, multi-tasking and time management are essential to succeeding in this environment. This includes moving product with pallet jacks or hand trucks, bailing cardboard, organizing the backroom, creating/dismantling/relocating displays, assisting customers and processing wire transfers. Depending on the store, a typical day will be completely dead with the occasional 30 minute rushes scattered through out a single shift or consistent chaos during especially around holidays.
