I upset a fellow co-worker today and he said "I'm going to murder you." At the time I was too busy trying to work out the issue but after talking to some friends they think I should go to management... I'm pretty sure it was a heat of the moment thing. I apologized for my oversight that had inconv...

Do they really give health insurance? I am a 19 month employee and have been jacked around about my insurance. No one seems to know when you get it and what you have. I've been told for months that I already have it but have never received any paperwork to sign . I've spoke to the store manager, benefit...

we are having our Inventory on December 1st. Could there possibly be a worse time to have it? We still have tons of Thanksgiving backstock and we are still getting Christmas stuff

Have they made any changes to the ELMS formula? I have noticed in the past year, that it is getting harder to make ELMS, specifically with items that have a large quantities (such as someone having 40 Kool-Aid packets). These orders used to bring my ELMS sky high. Now, I am lucky to get over 100%.

Can management really tell me that i need to cut my hair. I am a male and I wanted to grow my hair out to an average 80's power metal level or axl rose level. Also can they prevent me from growing out my beard to a zach galifinakis level, not a zz top just a zach galifinakis.

I am filling out my paperwork to start at Kroger on Tuesday. I found this site while researching some more about Kroger and unions. After reading so many of these posts, I'm skeeeered.

So management has cut our hours across the board so they can save labor and get that big Christmas bonus, yet they want everything done as if we had a full staff ? Everything has to look fresh and stocked so the corporate big wigs are impressed and they don't look bad. Then come January 2nd, they will cut...

I work in the front end as a cashier, and recently a lot of the other cashiers also have had our hours cut down from 30ish hours to at most 17 a week.And the worst part is, we have almost no baggers scheduled. Maybe it's the quevision we just started to use? Has this happened at anyone else's store?

Any other stores or divisions having an issue with Salvage (Stacks of Blue Chep Pallets, Cardboard Bales, etc)? Our store can be the last store on the trailer and the driver cannot take salvage because he has to go up north to the Kraft DC or to get a load of turkeys. I know this isn't the driver's fault, bu...

I'm extremely curious to find out if/how many other employees out there have encountered an expectation/acceptance of working off the clock. Night crew foreman is treated as a salary position, especially with the key retailing policies in place and ELMS. Anyone??? This is illegal and against...

I work in the deli bakery. We have just one oven in the bakery. The chef shop and deli share a small oven. In the four days before Thanksgiving we have to bake 3 to 5 times the amount of bread we normally do, bake around 120 cases of pumpkin and sweet potato pies, and bake 20+ cases of fruit pies. Normall...

Hey! Is anyone on here working at the Kroger off of Eldridge Parkway in Houston, TX? I may get transfered out there and I wanted to know how everything was, especially according to a female. Is everyone friendly? How are the managers? Thanks!

A lot of good people with a f***'ed up set of leaders there. So anyone out there? And are you guys planning on running out of turkeys agai...
