I've been working with the company almost 4 years now... started as a clerk, became a backup, then a department manager... I feel like things are becoming more micromanaged by the week... from the way schedules are written, to wanting daily tasks detailed on schedules, the stronger emphasis on key r...

Does anyone have any thoughts about the Associate Relations Manager position? I have an interview in 2 weeks down in Cincinnati and was just wondering what ya'll thought about it. I heard they're paid very low, but I would rather work in an office setting than with customers. Thanks!

How do I go about filing a grievance? I'm being scheduled to work Saturdays AND Sundays every week when there's people below me who get every single weekend off. I'm so sick of being stuck working weekends when I have more seniority over those who get EVERY weekend off.

We have a customer who repeatedly stop by at ~11:50pm and is constantly shopping after 12. I do not mean, "Oh let me get the last item" either. This customer will attempt to continue on until 12:15 - 12:30. I'm sick and tired of seeing them do this constantly. Is there nothing we can do about it...

I am a technician at Kroger Central Fill outside of Columbus, Ohio and I am here to tell you it is the worst place to work. It used to be good, but it has become a horrible place to work. Why? Because of the terrible management team of Denise B. and Brittney F. Denise is the fattest, sit on her butt and leave ea...

Hey, I took a Kroger saliva test today, 38 hours clean from THC. I know. STUPID STUPID STUPID. I'm never taking a risk like this again. I've learned my lesson, but now I'm looking forward nervously. I want your opinions, you guys. Did I pass? Also, I want your own personal stories. Share them! So, here...

I applied for customer first clerk and they send me an email saying "welcome aboard" or the onboarding portal. They send me this email about 3 days ago and I did not receive anything yet. Do I should call? or anyone know when it will be my first day?

It's just not worth it. The employees are so hateful and rude. The store is never stocked. Just in the last week, 3 trips to Kroger here's what happened: 1. Cashier had a fit when I told her the code for a white onion. She said "I'm not going to put up with that, I'm not having any of it" rea...

Anybody ever go to the "official" Kroger sites like yammer? Or read the mag's you get in the mail? They sure do make Kroger to look like a fun place to work. I'm sure it can be with the right management. Do any of you (me too) complainers work at these stores? In the few years I've been with K....

I tried the key lime and coconut one, and...
