In fact they're doubling down on this stuff. It is going to really suck now being at the front end. If you're caught not saying hello to even one customer, you get written up or suspended, and then fired. Doesn't matter if you're just sitting by your register for a 30 second rest, you get written up for tha...

How much time to does Kroger have to give an employee to move when transferring stores?

I retrieve and put away the bakery frozen order five days a week. I alsp do some of the ordering. Someone else does it the days I'm off. Because of this, we like to keep a tight inventory on everything. There's no reason to have multiple cases of something when you get an order in every day and you use le...

If I started out at maximum wage for my position, how do I qualify for a raise? Do I have to be there a certain period of time, or move up first?

wtf is the point of the beeper things when you come in and out of the store. I've never seen an associate stop someone after one goes off, you know to check their receipt like wal mart does. At best , they're annoying. They confuse the customer. What's the point?

.....Mold. And, they want the berries "waterfalled" with 7 empty boxes under each full box. What is the point of all the empty boxes? I can understand 2 or 3, maybe even 4, but seven?? And basically this just means the full display table plus one box. What stupidity. Waterfalling becomes pointl...

My store's in a suburban strip mall, near a bunch of other stores and restaurants that close up around 9. At 10 PM, like clockwork, we get rushed by people with fairly large orders-- employees of those stores who went shopping after work. The FES used to schedule a cashier until 11 to cover, but ELMS came...

I work at the front end as a cashier, and for the past 2 months, the cashiers and courtesy clerks/baggers have been evaluated several times by different Front End Supervisors and Managers as well as the Store Manager . I have been at this location since 2016. Several of my co-workers have been there lon...

if you aren't angry at work at least 75% of the time, you must love your job. I'm mad just thinking about going in this weekend...it's the weekend...the good jobs are off on weekends (banks, etc). Anyway in my fits of rage I have slammed the phone on a moron employee so much that it broke the phone. The...

That's precisely what I did. I left. Kroger has too many problems that I cannot work within their problematic procedures, structures, and expectations without getting eventually ulcers. I can solve many of those problems by proposing new procedures, etc. but the mere thought gets shot down a...

So many out of date products just sitting for weeks, sometimes MONTHS, past their best buy/use by date at my store on the shelves. Pillsbury biscuits that expired weeks ago. Yogurt that expired MONTHS ago. Meat that expired weeks ago. Packaged produce that expired weeks ago. I pick what expired prod...

Hey Krogeer, how about concentrating on your EMPLOYEES-we are staffing your stores, the customers are NOT!

She jumped ship and is now working, I believe, frozen dept. Been there 1.5 yrs. We both worked together at Walfart, so I spoke of how better things must be for her at Kroger. She responded that they weren't---in fact, she's considering going back because Kroger isn't giving her any hours! This really s...

Hello, lads and lasses. There has been a heat advisory in our tri-state area. If it has been issued where anyone else lives and has to be outdoors, please be careful.

I have been with Kroger for 10 months. You either have to have a specific amount of hours in to qualify for FMLA or have worked for the company for 1 year. Unfortunately, I had a medically necessary surgery and requested fmla and of course it was denied because I didn't have enough hours in. Close, but did...

The song is played during third shift (12:00 am - 5:00 am). It's a rock song, has a male singer with a slightly raspy voice. Chorus: You've been silent all this time And you've been fading as time passes by I'm leaving the eagle's nest Thanks! I'd really appreciate it if I knew who sang this song.
