How are things at your stores? I'll start it off: It's terrible where I am. Kroger has ruined it's reputation by creating a terrible employee atmosphere. So now they can't find ppl that want the privilege of working 8 days a week, with increasing work loads, and less OT pay. The smaller the staff become...
Has anyone heard or have confirmed more management firings in January? I know there is supposed to be a reduction at corporate. Someone has posted on Layoff site that more SM's and ASM's are being let go in January. Just wondering because our divisional president has been repeatedly visiting the sam...
I work as a courtesy clerk and my set availability is anywhere between 8:30am to 7:00pm NO EXCEPTIONS. I have told them numerous times and they told me they understood, yet they STILL manage to slip in 6:00 am start times (which is TOO EARLY for me to start). They ALWAYS do this without fail during the Chr...
I left Kroger after working just 2 days on the job. It wasn't what I expected. The job wasn't for me. I could foresee this move was a disaster. It was an hourly job as well. My immediate supervisor was a bit too snarky to me during the training period. I had options where I could be happy elsewhere. I em...
I dont know if this is company wide or not, but Im going to rant. So I am full time. I am told to work 40 hours. They schedule me and the entire department the next 2 weeks, 30 hours. And Im told to just ignore that, and actually work your 40 hours anyway. Ok so forgive me, but why the **** do they do this? Does cor...
Between grab and go, clicklist, getting remote orders for pickup, etc, when are we supposed to get anything else done? Plus they reduced us to a skeleton crew. Grab and go alone takes hours and if you ever get a clicklist while you're doing it, good luck ever catching up.
you lazy ass pieces of littering ****! Stop leaving you damn coupons on the shelves and throw them AWAY!!! Whether they are expired or not throw them away. I swear these damn people in the south are absolute trash!!
Yesterday I received an evaluation from the Assistant Front end Manager. His main focus was this... 1) Secret shoppers are coming to our location, and they are expecting to hear the following from our cashiers...Hi, how are you?May I scan your Kroger card?Did you find everything you needed today?W...
Atlanta division employee here....why are our managers going bat s*** crazy about the lot? They say we have to have it cleared by 9PM before our produce doors are locked for the night. Is this happening in your store too? I don't get all wound up about stuff like this-I know the lot will be cleared by that...
I know I'm not a moderator or member of any real significance here, but can we sticky this? I feel like this has been asked on here several times, and I think having a central place to post tips/advice for boosting ring/tender percentage would be helpful. I've been cashiering for over a year now and here...
Im interested in moving from Fred Meyer to Kroger down in the states. Would like to know if anyone has transferred how it went for them? My human resource said that I should secure a position before I leave and that she wants that store managers information to get started. I emailed management at the sto...
What happened to it? Is it still around? It was big we used it in parades What in the cornbread hell am I talking about? I am talking about a huge shopping cart one that is big as a car. It was in the Atlanta Division I think they got it back in 1996 right before the Olympics.
Have you ever heard that old saying, "expect the unexpected?" For example, you're on the clock and helping a customer. Everything is going just fine but you're waiting to see if they're going to be rude for any reason. But you probably don't expect that while you're off the clock. That happened to me on...
Here we go again, in store walk mode... panicking to make everything look good for people that don't give a crap about us, but we continue to put on a show for them, so they think everything's fine, lets continue to run the store like this. I'm working all 7 days this week but that is ok, my new "fresh coordi...
