shoehorning more people into kroger will literally do nothing to the already astronomical turnover rate it boasts. nothing will change and kroger will continue to suck
Too bad the crooked media (of which, many TV stations are awash in Kroger commercials, and the high price of all that airtime means our wages suffer) won't publish something more realistic like:
"Kroger lost 11,000 employees last year for a range of problems including poor wages, ineffective managers, low hours, chronic skeleton crews, terrible or non-existent on-the-job training, contradictory rules and guidelines, work/schedule/cleaning details and demands that are totally impossible to comply with using the restrictive labor hours allotted, etc, SO there is likely to be an actual net loss of employees across the board at many stores".
BTW, I believe WORD OF MOUTH is the best advertiser..........people who are truly happy with their experience and tell their friends, relatives and neighbors will keep the good stores in business!!!!
Kroger doesn't NEED to spend millions of dollars on advertising when it is a fact the Grocery Stores are needed by almost everyone, they will go to the store whether or not they reminded by TV ads............even those who go only to restaurants and don't eat at home still have to buy stuff like toilet paper and laundry soap!
Kroger is still building new stores and some of them are very big Marketplaces. I suspect many of these new employees will be hired on for the new stores. Also, who knows how many employees will quit/be fired from Kroger in 2017? Subtract that number from the 10,000 figure, and who knows what will be left. Plus, if the new employees aren't given many hours, it may not even have a noticeable impact in stores.

Absolutely true. People always ask me about working at Kroger and I tell them it doesn't pay **** and I wouldn't recommend it to a dog. People are misguided by the smiling, fake faces in commercials but those people have a wake up call when they walk into Kroger stores and see how miserable employees look!! At least at my store they do......
I wonder how many of those 10,000 employees will get 12 hours a week. I wonder how many of them will quit during their probation period. I really wonder how many will stick around permanently. It makes them sound like such a good employer but we all know that all stores are the same way.
And then any that want to ''stick around'' will have their hours cut drastically or be worked 18 days in a row or have their shifts slipped constantly so they have no personal life or be worked ''just enough'' to not get full time or be called in constantly on their rare day off or be transferred to another store 20 miles from their home without their sayso or...
