I have been a bagger for close to a year now and I have been trying to get in a different department and out of the Front End for ages. I am tired of seeing other baggers with a lot less senoirity than me and who don't work nearly as hard as I do get promoted over me. I brought this to the attention of the hiring pe...
Me and my husband were both let go from the company. He had been there 22 years as a department head and I had been there 12 years as manager. GET OUT as soon as possible. You would think after 22 years they wouldnt do something like this but they did. Oh and if you think you will get unemployment YOUR WRONG. G...
Hey everyone I've been working in the Deli department for over a year and I have a 27 hour vacation and 1 personal day left. I jut got offered another job and im giving my 2 week notice this week. Do I get paid for my vacations and personal day even tho I'm not taking them? thanks
I'm just starting my second full week and already thinking of quitting. I'm getting all evening hours (till 11, sometimes 12) and 7 and 8 hour hour shifts and, frankly that's more than I bargained for. I'm not a kid, I'm middle-aged and this job was only meant to supplement my income, not be the major par...
For about a 30 minute span, we had 6 registers open and only 2 baggers (including me) to bag them. This was during the "evening rush hour" and the acsm never bothered to call the 3 or 4 other baggers that were "working" today up front. 1/2 the time it's the scheduler's fault, but 1/...
Okay, so I have worked at my store as a Deli Clerk for about a year and a half now, and I honestly HATE the deli, but want to move up. I always see bids for ACSM and was wondering if it is possible for me to even become one. Help? Would it even be worth signing if I have no front end experiance? Would I just be auto...
Hey guys. Just got the job and starting monday. I work 5-10 cleaning the deli. I looked at my schedule and im only working 3 day this week. I really want more then 3 days. Will I get more after the first couple of weeks or should I ask for more?
How hard is it to transfer into a full time position into a different division? I'm a department lead and thinking about transferring to a different division. Will I have to basically start over and work my way up or is it possible to find a full time position open? Also the store I'm at is non union and...
Recent college grad looking atthe Kroger co-manager. What's the salary like? I hear it's anywhere from 35-41k? Why such a gap? What's it like in the Michigan area (suburbs of Detroit)-affluent and busy area. I'm looking for a true career where I can grow and climb the ladder....is this possible wit...
They're doing their best to shorten the checkout lines, which is great. But waiting in line for customer service is always a huge pain. I dread when I need something from there because it's an ordeal. They generally only have one person at the counter (even if there's two people, one is usually sitti...
I'm less than a week into the job and I'm struggling. I'm a cashier and one of the front end managers told me that I should be up to speed in two more weeks. How likely is it that I could be fired if I'm not? I think I'm doing okay, I'm just slow, but I feel confident that I'll get faster as I gain more confidence....
I work in the Produce Department in the Kroger Central Division. On Sunday afternoon while filling the bananas a customer came to me and asked. "Do you work here or just stock Bananas?" I couln't believe it. Can anyone top this?
I just got hired and was given 34.5 hours my first week. I told them my availability was open, but that doesn't mean that I want to work that many hours. Can I specify that I only want say 20 to 25 hours a week? I don't care what days or times, I just want less hours.
Okay I know this is a shot in the dark but does anyone here know how long the probation period is for a cashier in Ohio? I lost my handbook and everyone keeps telling me to see the service director to get a new one, even management, but I never work the same hours as her. I recently got a pay raise for having p...
Hi everyone, I'm a relatively new employee at Kroger, but past my probationary period-I can tell because they gave me my pay raise for having previous cashier work. Towards the end of my shift I started feeling super itchy on the back of my knees (I know, it's weird) and now I have raised bleeding ski...
I'm transferring and just wondering if I would get a cost of living raise since housing is more expensive in the part of the country I am transferring to? Is there such a thing as a cost of living raise with kroger?
I have worked for Kroger now for almost 20 years. Had I have known back then what I know now, I would have ran the other way. I just love the new blue t-shirts that say " GLAD YOU ARE HERE" and " GREAT FOOD LOW PRICES." They should read the truth and say, " NO HOURS LOW WAGES."...
Don't you love the new shirts we got to wear? And now we have signs saying new lower prices, wow fuel points!, and Faster checkout! The prices, that's debatable. Fuel points, nothing new there! But new faster checkout? How! We still don't have the hours and hardly anyone scheduled up front so it...
I dont get these workers at store #24 I have been a night crew stocker for almost 3 years now and have never seen it this bad. 2 people on repack night, 3 people on load night with 800 to 1200 pcs loads, only schedualed 11pm to 3 or 4am. We have had 2 workers leave in the last 2 weeks and no replacments or extra hr...
