The union has reached a tentative agreement with Kroger. It will be voted on next week and surely passed. I haven't seen it in writing, but I have heard a few key points from somebody who has. Overall, I'm disappointed. I was hoping for a lot more given the recent wage increases from competitors and...

I'm just curious about what the experience is like and how complicated it is to learn how to do ALL that is required for the position? There's just SO MUCH info that you have to take in and while I'm hoping to get adequate training, I just want to prepare myself for what's expected of me.

Hey!I've been working at a Kroger store since 2008 as a "courtesy clerk," a very fancy name for a bagger.I've just been hired for two other jobs that fit the degree that I've worked so hard for at a 4-year university. In the coming months, I'll be working the majority of my day with either of th...

Ok guys, about 4 months ago I had a talk with my union rep about switching departments and I was telling her how the mangers moved other people before me when I asked way before the other employees did. So she asked me whether I had more seniority than the other employees. I told her yes, I started June 25th...

I was hired at my local Kroger about a month ago and I've been working the past two weeks as a bagger. At my store baggers get 30 minute lot shifts. I usually work about 4 hours and I end up scheduled for 3 lot shifts per day. I struggle at pushing in carts (I'm only able to do about 5 at a time) and after work I'm l...

Are all your courtesy clerks male in your store? Just wondering as this ran through my head as being a little sexist, with all the males doing the harder works (such as the constant racking of carts in 100+ degree weather).

A co-worker of mine was written up and suspended for not following the correct call in procedure. Apparently he called in the very early hours of the morning, and said he would not be in for work due to illness. The night crew manager said he would pass on the information to management. I was aware that he...

Don't know what the heck happened after inventory, but all my cigs got inactivated and balance went to negatives. Everything else has shown wrong balances. I have way more product than what cao says I have...took 8 hours to fix the cigs. Ugh. No time for that.

Your customer wants lunchmeat. You come to take their order still wearing your gloves you had on from the last customer. You check the display case, no lunchmeat. You walk to the cooler, open the door with your gloved hand, check inside, come back out. You walk around to the outside of the display c...

I recently interviewed to become an apprentice meat cutter. I was told that ?the apprenticeship program would be sixteen weeks long. Do I become a journeyman after that, because it seems a little quick? How long does it take to become a journeyman?

Well you see, ever since corporate has come management has been really strict. For example, we are no longer allowed to make trains with the carts because it is "not safe." Sunday night I decided to help this one guy out and take his hour long cart shift right before my hour long cart shift. Wh...

Kroger stock just took a split and the stock keeps climbing up and up it appears and everything just seems so peachy and perfect according to the higher ups in the company, but don't let appearances deceive you. They don't even realize what is coming to this company and within the next 20 years it will g...

why is it that the raises for pharmacists are equal to or less than that of the techs? no wonder sw division has 40% pharmacy turnover. vacation policy and bonus structure suck, too. Kroger may want to think about using some of the billion dollars it is sinking into the dallas district to keep the em...

Trying to fill around 2,000 positions at 185 stores. I wonder why they would have 2,000 positions open at 185 stores in the first place? Certainly couldn't be the low pay, lack of acknowledgement from management or the manipulation of the hours keeping part-timers part-time. Nor could it be the mass...
