Pros

Many opportunities, many different store banners, very large company. Based in Minnesota, one of top places to live in the country for families.

Cons

Still trying to figure out how to operate as one company. Management still fragmented. Wholesale managers not trained in retail. Company does not operate as one team, one dream. No focus on what company should stand for with consumers. They still do not know how they will win vs. WalMart. Kroger and Safeway are gaining ground.
