Pros

The pay structure is ok. Pension is ok

Cons

Very poor work life balance. Expects blood from a stone. Area managers think they are gods and dictators who will put you down for any small thing. Processes change every 5 minutes you never know what you're doing on a consistent basis. They will git rid of you and then falsify evidence to try and cover their butt's. Not a great place to work for.

Pros

Intelligent engaged people, Modern offices, Decent pay, and good retirement benefits.

Cons

Growing pains of a European company modifying its business to grow its American footprint. Senior leadership was mostly European. Felt disconnected from American grocery culture.
