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...

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...

Does anyone have insight as to what kind of questions they will ask. Mostly about produce or more about leadership helping others, etc?

These changes came from the Front End Coordinator who is over an area of Kroger stores due to many complaints about 1) long lines, 2) customers waiting too long to be rung up, 3) cashiers not being friendly nor greeting the customer and so on. One of the Front End supervisors was in charge of training eve...

Kroger customers complain about the long wait to get checked out. So Que Vision was designed to solve that problem. Yet when the store I work at has 8 open registers, only 5 of them are being used by our customers. The number of customers waiting in line affects that score. So really what is the solution t...

We have have a new employee in our department. They have potential, but seems to not want to work fast enough. They are willing do the work but slowly. It's like they know they need to work while on the clock, but doesn't want to do much. They will spend 30 minutes on a slicer, 2 hours washing spoons and pans...

What department is better overall for back up and department head?

Anonymous

What you guys think?

God's child

Is it better than the front end. I cashier right now. Do you get benefits if you work in the fuel center? Are you treated like a courtesy clerk. Please describe. I like cashiering but hate front end people. Which department is better. Thanks.

Just in the past week, there have been stories of a customer having her window smashed out by a pedestrian, someone shot DEAD in a parking lot, one abandoned baby (today!), and that is just this week! All at local Kroger stores here. What crime has happened in your lot and how is your store responding?
