I wish Kroger would stop this. Free candy, free cookies, free fruit. Candy and cookies are not good for kids (in excess) so why should Kroger encourage this when they like to pretend they are so "hip" and up with the green/healthy lifestyles? The free fruit in Produce should be stopped!!!! Pieces o...
We have a self-serve bread slicer in our bakery department over by the artisan bread wall. You just put the bread in, close the lid and the bread comes out underneath. Somebody tried slicing a loaf of bread in the bag. There were shreds of plastic all tangled up in the blades. Did they really think...
But I regret leaving the bakery for the deli I thought the bakery sucked but man man the bakery is a whole lot better than the deli these asshats always have me closing by myself because employees with more seniority don't want to close and I'm a nice guy so whenever someone is alone and the call on my day of...
I have worked at kroger for four years now, and I am thinking of getting a tattoo on my forearm, which would be very visible. I always wear short sleeves to work, because I work in Mississippi, so it is usually very hot. I am wondering what kroger's policy is. There are a few people I work with that have visi...

My team just recently were discussed with from a night comanager that our supposed goal to stock hourly is 85 cases an hour. Tonight, I had 137 pieces and it took me exactly 2 and a half hours to finish it. By that time I hit exactly 55 cases an hour, which is supposed to be the minimum they want. Where do...
anybody else ready for kroger to make major changes or excuses why we need to cutback on things wages etc or threats of taking back stuff from employees?
At my store, somehow it's become the front end's job to fill them, and more specifically that of the courtesy clerks and SCO attendant. A vendor might fill Body Armor and some energy drinks, but not enough to matter. Grocery might fill milk and almond milk in the morning, but that's it. So, one Grab &a...
However it's for a Deli Clerk in my store. And lately how they have separated out some bakery people, leaving some to work afternoons and closing shifts(to which I am one of the remaining 3 over there that is not full-time), I'm not sure if I can sign my name and apply or not. I mean I've wanted full-time fo...
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...
Walmart only pays $9 an hour until pathways is completed, which takes a considerable amount of time. Not to mention there's no health Insurance for PT, and even FT health Insurance can't hold a candle to the health Insurance at Kroger. My stepdad works a corporate job at a health Insurance company and...

so i basically have made up my mind i'm going to call in today, and please spare me the lectures btw; a supervisor in greatpeople rejected my one day time-off request that i put in weeks ago. i'm not worried about getting a write up because i'll be quitting soon, but can i be fired on the spot for doing this (...
Well, I had a vacation planned about 3 months ago to go out-of-state for a week, and I put in a time-off request around then; I never heard back from my department manager about whether it was denied/approved, so I assumed it was fine, seeing as how my other co-workers had done so several times in the past...
