Pros
NOT MANY!! Been with the company over 30yrs. Union job, good pay for old timers. Use to be one of the best jobs around. I LOVE MY JOB! I dislike this company and how they treat us.
Kontras
So much pressure put on employees. The stores look like crap. Management knows and gets the same pressure. Vons used to be such a great store until Safeway took it over. They have no clue how to run grocery stores, or treat their employees. The old timers that really care, get so depressed that they can't do their job the way it should be done. Never enough time. If we get a new employee that is good; they never stay because of the $8.00 hr. pay. Everybody is part-time and it would take them 5yrs. to make full pay. But they would still be part time. It only took me 25 yrs. to make full-time. That was by the grace of god; not because they gave it to me willingly. It's a revolving door of new employees. Young ones, old ones, not many that know what there doing or really care. Just looking for a paycheck. That puts all the pressure on the old timers to pick up the slack!
