Recently the sick pay policy changed. I believe we get sick pay on day one now right? It use to be on day three with a doctors note or immediate hospitalization. I'm tired of having a full bank of sick pay I can't use nor will ever use.

I was hired and trained for grocery well over a year or so ago. When I was hired and I would just be working grocery, gave my job description and training, etc. Just a few weeks ago they have began scheduling all of us for various departments anywhere from 1-3 nights a week. Do they do that at your store and w...

Our new store manager thinks the bakery is overstaffed. i have just a few questions for any other bakery managers. 1. What is average weekly budget? 2. Do you usually exceed your budget or do you fall short? 3. How many hours are you given? 4. How many hours do you actually use? 5. How many people in your d...

Should I call the union? I work with a courtesy clerk who continues to pull customers through self check and process their order for them. He has been warned several times by other corworkers this is a union violation. He's been intervened several times and stopped and pushed away. Coworkers are...

Anyone else having their store remodeled? We no longer have a hot bar, salad bar or soup bar. Customer complaints are high on this change.

Been hearing another trash song being played at least every 4 to 6 hours at Kroger. It's been on the playlist maybe 6-8 months, maybe a year. Totally unintelligible lyrics, but about all I can say is the main verse or chorus (phrase) consists of about 12 - 14 notes, each word/syllable completely inde...

They're upset that we don't EVER have any working electric carts? They keep complaining to us but we can't do anything. Maybe if I tell them to call corporate, maybe something might happen? Feel kinda bad when I have to tell an elder lady who really needs one of those carts that they're all dead or being u...

There is no reason to call 3 employees because one is sick. 2 of the employees is literally doing nothing but walking back and forth and chatting. They are just in the way.

Kroger Union is trash. Negotiating a measly .25 cent raise ain't nothing, nor is 1 dollar good for leads. Leads should be getting paid atleast 3 to 5 dollars more due to the stress, department upkeep we have to do. At my store, leads don't last more than a year and a half. Frozen, even less. Nutritio...

A fellow employee I work with is a cashier. However, they applied for bigger and still want to transfer. What would some of the lines be that management hands out to basically say they don't want to approve of the transfer?

This is one of the most frustrating things about working for Kroger. Management acts like they have all the authority in the world to ask you to do whatever work they want you to do, even if it's outside your job description to do that work, and then behave as though you've robbed the store blind when you d...

I know just getting some grapes and strawberries isn't going to make it worth the price per pound as you can get a whole bag of grapes, perhaps two for the price. So what I've seen people do, is they fill it up with lots of meats and eggs and cheese. Though, I still doubt that is enough to make it worth the pric...
