Does Kroger hire help for the holiday season? I have no interest in working beyond January 1st. Also can a person request not to work with a particular category of people (known only in private with the HR person)?

Ive heard different people. Some say its Kroger night shift, some say its the actual truck driver. Im asking for like meat, produce, grocery, frozen, and dairy trucks during night shift. Who is supposed to and where are they supposed to unload it to? Like to receiving or actual take it to departme...

I understand the company rules well 20 yrs with company you learn them well. Every now and then we'll get a manager that just decides I don't like you. Then it's hell. His @$$ is headed towards a union grievance if he doesn't back off me. At this point it is very clear it's discrimination.

Many people do not realize the produce back room is a trash dumping ground where side departments come and leave their garbage by the trash door. many people are too lazy to call to get a key. Even when it's wide open they just lazily abandon it like we are responsible for it. Hell no! Our produce back roo...

I'm basically tired of not being respected and treated like dirt. he's done some things that I would consider a violation of kroger's integrity definition. I feel he's also trying to "push me out" and that in it self is illegal because we're union protected. Our managers have high turn over and he's on...

I can't bring my PURSE into the store but I CAN bring in two Kroger shopping bags with the same stuff. I would bet that most of the shoplifting is done by customers. I just transferred out of a store that was #1 in our District for shoplifting. i saw in my previous store customers roll out with a cart full of g...

I have told them several times I am going on vacation for 10 days the first week of december and going out of town. Manager is a dick and decides to schedule me on one of the days I did not input for vacation. But instead did a single day off request. Nope, calling out sick that day if manager is a dick about it....

Several years ago someone in our Local 1996n area got demoted from Regional HR to Store Manager (one month) then to what is called a "Field Position." I was told she was put in that job to see "how (she) gets along with other people." What exactly does someone in that job DO and is it considered a dead end/y...

Kroger : Stop this wall of shame for those that do not do fresh start daily. Weekly was fine but a wall of shame is disgraceful. Not everyone works 5 days a week. Many work part time or 2-4 days a week Vacations happen and you need to not get snippy with us when we take 1-3 weeks and harass us abt it when we...

It is somewhat mysterious but it seems someone brought a class action, probably in arbitration, and I got money for being denied breaks. Why deny us breaks? Company is basically a gang of criminals. I'll provide some details if you want them, but I'm mostly wondering if anyone else got money. And if y...

There's racism at Fred Meyer when an Caucasian female employee asked me "Do you eat Cats and Dogs?" No manager intervene-they're all Caucasian. And the thing is the employee asked it almost on a daily for 2 months when Trump was saying about the refugees. I'm not refugee nor an immigrant. Isn't this...

All the b.s. I've had to deal with this year in my department alone coupled with repetitive shi--ty managers. I'm just spilling the beans on how bad this location has gotten in the past couple of years. I don't care if I end up submitting a 30 page essay telling the inners of how far my store has fallen. It s...

Spend $35+ worth of groceries to get an item valued at <$5.00. Too many people are idioits and just think the free item is free like it was before. Nope you have to spend $35 to get a cheap aff item valued at <$5.00. Bravo kroger.

Give me another reason why I should spend my hard earned paycheck at kroger? No, really? I have been thrown under the bus and kroger is not getting my money any more. There are cheaper local stores to support.

Then get scolded for that. No that sh*it ain't right. I think I'm finding another store to pick up hours at and...

Ive been wondering how effective personalized print materials are for engaging customers. With digital options dominating, is there still room for custom print campaigns? I feel like something unique and tangible can make an impression, but does it actually lead to better customer loyalty or sa...

You still gotta do the bare minimum if you decide to quiet quit. The company does notice if you just stop doing your job duties. They have the right to write you up for job abandonment. Just depends on how fast they notice it. You have to do the bare minimum. Just fine tune it to the degree that you can. This l...

I've posted a few times about how an old manager that didn't like me eventually followed me to my current location (8 yrs later). Well.. now he's in charge of my store and being a di-ck to me. Same as before. Same bs I had to deal with. If I didn't have stuff to commit to thru the end of the year I would just go no...
