we have a variety of positions available (mostly bend over and touch your toes). Any other stores hearing this garbage? Can you work a flexible schedule that includes weekends and evenings? yeah because that's what I look for in a new job

Something I've always found strange at my store is that we have no manager between 11:00pm and 12:00pm, meaning the only employees in the store at that time are the closing self-checkout person, one night crew member, and 1 file maintenance person on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Are other stores like th...

Is this thing a big of a disaster as I think it'll be? They just started that here and now instead of a regular service desk there's a roped off line thing for money services. So now when someone has an actual customer service problem they have to wait for the people using the store as a bank to get done? Or wh...

Let's get real. Kroger in the past was a good company to work for. I would not recommend working there to anyone now. The bottom line is their bottom line. Eschedule, department favoritism, horrible non engaging workers still getting all their hours. Kroger executives have way too much time on t...

Folks, please believe me when I tell you: E Schedule is really not the end of the world some seem to believe it is. Wal-Mart rolled this same thing out several years ago, even before I got into management myself, and I too thought it was going to be a fiasco. But it's really not. Think of it this way. Your sto...

This new Esched is terrible. Everything worked before and now it is going to bring down the morale and make people quit. If you are a Lead or Dept Manager you have to work till 10pm once a week, and get later shifts? So basically if you are higher up in a dept then you are getting screwed. Its not worth the ext...

Yesterday I clocked out at 6:08 and got overtime. When I went to clock out it said 6:06 so I decided to sort some go backs and wait another minute. Apparently management saw this on camera and now I might be getting in trouble for this. What should I do if management calls me back to talk to them? Could I be f...

What a cluster! It has a 62 year old woman scheduled to unstack the truck, and floral employees not coming in until 10:30 on some days when the order arrives at 7 AM. How can they claim that this is easier then what has worked for so many years?

I've been at Kroger for 6 months and think I may have finally reached my limit. I'm basically my department's dedicated conditioner. I'm usually scheduled five 4-hour morning shifts during the week and whoever is the first to come in on the weekends might do a little facing before they start stocking...

Just got called into work early. I'm supposed to be there at 5:00 and they want me there at 2:00. I told them the earliest I could make it in was about 3:15. WHY they ask. If I fill out a schedule change for a day off - WHY? I know Kroger is open 6 am to 12 am and they want me available those hours but do I rea...

So, about a month ago I got moved from being a courtesy clerk (where I worked for 6 months) to grocery, where I began to do conditioning.

With all the cut-backs on hours and such lately, one thing I've noticed is that floaters have retained all of their hours still. I'm a floater as well, so I didn't actually realize how bad the cut-back in hours was until I started talking with people in different departments, and started looking at peo...
