Pros

Benefits are a plus. Raises are based on clock hours not on performance. Chance to move up in within the Kroger company. Kroger has groceries across the united states so you can transfer and move if needed. Paid every week.

Cons

Starting rate for deli clerk is low for the work they do. Picking up slack from co workers who don't work as hard don't really get recognition or paid more if you work harder than others. Full time only for assistant and managers. Hours are different every week. Odd hours they give you. Have to be in one department for 6 months even if you don't like it before you can apply for a different department which isn't a 100% guarantee you will be able to switch.

Pros

If you have good relationship with your manager and you can trust them to have your back, it is an amazing place to work, and you will find success easy.

Cons

If you have lost the confidence of your manager, or have bad communication with your manager, it makes it very hard to be seen and be successful.
