I have heard of a lot of stupid stuff happening with this company, but what I found out recently took me aback. Apparently our district manager had the bright idea to move the grocery crew, sans dairy and drug/gm, to overnights. The reason behind this is the dm doesn't want them to be in the way of the cust...

I have vacation this week, and when I went to check my schedule, it said I worked on Monday a 6:30 to 11:00, but I am on vac that week. Could I be written up if I just don't show that day? I'm considering just not showing up. I made a coy of my schedule in case they give me grief.

If 3 people within a dept all request the same day off, will eschedule automatically make the one with least seniority work that day? We've had days with 3 people off and our dept manager works it out by moving people around and having decent coverage, but will eschedule let this happen? I'm afraid 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...

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...

Well I've been with Kroger two years and I was finally getting 32 - 38 hours a week. Checked my schedule yesterday and I'm back at 20 hours a week. Thanks Kroger! I finally had some seniority but a girl transferred from another store, and 4 people have been transferred from other departments to the fr...

Title says it all, I'm just wondering, cause there's all this Express HR stuff and HR info and all that, I'm wondering if there's a way to check when we're next needed for work, especially those of us who's schedules tend to be a bit fluctuating.

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...

So I was under the impression 4 or 5 hour shifts get one 15 minute paid break that you clock out for while 8 hour shifts get 2 paid 15 minute breaks that may or may not be combined into a 30 minute break that might actually be long enough for you to eat something. When I looked at my eSchedule, it has me down for...

They said it was Nationwide but only a few states. Now who did it? Should we blame Obama? I heard he flipped the switch or maybe just blame the Republicans they get blamed for everything else anyway.
