Something I am starting to contemplate seriously, just a little synopsis of what is going on: I am currently working meat shop/front end. I've been getting between 20-25 hours in meat, which is my preference since I get along great with the department head and backup. I've learned a lot back there b...

Just wondering how many stores this is going on in. Recently our department heads and higher up managers have been going around talking about "less is more." They even have stickers. I'm a stocker and they've been putting up the stickers all over the back room. Basically it means "...

One day I was working for 2-3 hours without a break so when I had the time I would ask management what time my break would be and they said I could go to break and then say "And for the record I HATE it when you ask me when your break is."

Had a co-worker ask me whether the loss brother-in-laws or sister-in-laws are covered in Kroger's Funeral Pay policy (three paid days off)? I know that the loss of parents, grandparents, step-parents, mother- or father-in-laws, children and step-children are covered in my KMA. Also, are the lo...

Has anyone seen the new stickers Kroger is putting on some of the products now? They say something to the effect of, "Kroger item: If bought at another retailer call ###"They are basically put on items that other retailers buy in bulk at Kroger when there is a sale going on. Like the soft drin...

A particular Ralph's in southern California apparently has their employees lie to the upper management. We're supposed to sign some papers every hour or so to "verify" that a few tasks are being done at regular intervals. I was yelled at for not signing my name for some cleaning tasks duri...

One day at Kroger I just got off an 8 hour shift and not long after I get off I get a call from one of the managers. He wanted me to work the next day and I tried to tell him I had plans which luckily I was able to reschedule. He didn't listen to me and says "I'm not gonna keep calling you if you're just gonna ke...

Has anyone else received this letter from the company stating that we basically can not speak freely online of our activities at work? I find it both humorous and disheartening that my employer is so insecure of their own image that they must threaten their own employees with punishment for speaking...

In our City market store members of management have been getting away with stuff for a long time. First a sexual harrasment just goes away because a dept manager wants to cover for someone and now an assistant deli chef (chef..now that's funny) transferred her shrink to the salad bar so it would look li...

I just had my first assessment the other day and I was wondering... is it even possible to get a "4" on any of their catagories without being completely brainwashed or kiss ass? My overall score was, like, 2.7. Apparently, they think my people skills, persuasiveness, and "faith in th...

I have worked for kroger for going on 2.5 years. I have worked at several diffrent stores and have done very well at all of them. I started off as a deli employee and for about 2.5 years I have been a chef's assistant. I moved back to my hometown and was transfered to the first store that I ever worked at. I wa...

think about it realistically: they pay someone (lord knows how much) to sit up there and catch thieves when a lot of times the $ amount lost by thieves doesn't add up to what the company pays the security guys... seems like a lost cause to me, but hey who am i to criticize a company that throws money away o...

why is it that kroger seems to have a slower clock than it should be

Oboro718 · Oboro718

Why are schedules made out for a week at a time? It makes more sense to make them out for at least two weeks at a time. Everyone would have more time to make plans and ask for certain days off. Ive asked management before and of course no one has a clue, but when do they ever?
