Does it seem like these three things seem to get in the way of each other? For example, an over-emphasis on Qvision may mean that there are more holes on the shelves and product possibly spoiling (dairy is biggest at risk here) because your stock clerks are up front. An over-emphasis on OOS will probabl...

Just wondering - about a week ago, the boss put me in as a supervisor due to a settlement Kroger reached with the union. My ESS Kroger does list me as a floor sup and it does claim that I got a raise on the day that the boss "promoted" me. However, despite the pay cycle changing (I was promoted th...

So, I quit my last job. I worked in a factory, great pay and the work was fine. The working conditions became unsafe so a lot of people left, now I'm looking for a job that will hopefully not give me Silicosis or Cancer. I was a great factory worker because people left me alone and the job was mundane. Not ma...

i am trying to locate any employment records for my grandfather for a historical perspective on his life. He worked for Kroger down on State Ave. in Cincinnati in the late 1930s to early 1940s. Any suggestions? I have reached out to corporate, but have not heard anything back . He is deceased.

All this crap about getting only 12---18 hours per week makes me hair ball puking SICK. Folks, I don't know what the answer is here, but understand that you're not making enough money to even afford McNasty meals.

First off, I'm a bagger. I was scheduled to work until 2:00 pm. It's 1:58, and I just get done bagging an order. I then start to help bag for another customer in a different lane. Now the time's 2:01. I see another bagger coming up front, so I leave and clock out. As I'm about to leave, the cashier tells me I sh...

We've had a manager trainee in our bakery department for the past two weeks. Today he was slicing cakes for cake for two. The bakery manager and two other women were there too.

I've been working at Kroger for about four months now, and I've been a kind worker who always gets their stuff done. Since I was part time, I worked maybe three-four days a week. As time has gone on, I'm lucky to get one day a week. Just this week, in fact, I have not been scheduled at all. I asked my manager ab...

I was told key retailing was 5 minutes per tote in Drug/GM. Seriously? A tote full of mascara and nail polish in little boxes that have to be opened, sticker & security strip put on them, then put on the shelf. In 5 minutes? Some totes have over 50 boxes in them. I'm sure they don't even account...

I told him I can't donate this year, he grudgingly accepted and I had to put a zero in the amount box and sign it. Is thi...
