Rumor has it that if you ever want to go into management at Kroger that you are not allowed to be in the union. Rumor also has it that once you're in the union, you can NEVER get out, which means you will never be considered for management. Does anyone know if this is this true? I would hate to sign a piece of pa...

store managers are lazy and no help when it is obvious when another manager is not doing their job and making their employees unhappy. You go to them asking if they can talk to this manager but all they are good for is chatting with the customers, making their hourly walk around the store for their exerci...

I heard it was illegal for them to have only one person to clear the lot at night by themselves, however our Kroger's only has one bagger past 10. Is it really illegal? I feel incredibly uncomfortable going out there by myself when it's around 11-12

We have about 75 people including cashiers baggers and customer service and only 55 of us have hours every other department has their hours cut also. I d...

Today they had me come in at 5 am to get things cleaned. Well because no one can put things back where they were gotten from, I couldn't mop. Granted I should have looked, but I feel that I shouldn't have to look for something that should've been placed back where it was gotten from. Now they are telling me t...

I wonder what you guys think of this, but I went into a Walgreen's the other day that I've been shopping at for years. There's a new manager there who has been there a couple of months, and from what I can tell, seems to have a very anti-customer attitude. He seems to be constantly on the lookout for potenti...
