Several years ago someone in our Local 1996n area got demoted from Regional HR to Store Manager (one month) then to what is called a "Field Position." I was told she was put in that job to see "how (she) gets along with other people." What exactly does someone in that job DO and is it considered a dead end/y...

Kroger : Stop this wall of shame for those that do not do fresh start daily. Weekly was fine but a wall of shame is disgraceful. Not everyone works 5 days a week. Many work part time or 2-4 days a week Vacations happen and you need to not get snippy with us when we take 1-3 weeks and harass us abt it when we...

It is somewhat mysterious but it seems someone brought a class action, probably in arbitration, and I got money for being denied breaks. Why deny us breaks? Company is basically a gang of criminals. I'll provide some details if you want them, but I'm mostly wondering if anyone else got money. And if y...

There's racism at Fred Meyer when an Caucasian female employee asked me "Do you eat Cats and Dogs?" No manager intervene-they're all Caucasian. And the thing is the employee asked it almost on a daily for 2 months when Trump was saying about the refugees. I'm not refugee nor an immigrant. Isn't this...

All the b.s. I've had to deal with this year in my department alone coupled with repetitive shi--ty managers. I'm just spilling the beans on how bad this location has gotten in the past couple of years. I don't care if I end up submitting a 30 page essay telling the inners of how far my store has fallen. It s...

Spend $35+ worth of groceries to get an item valued at <$5.00. Too many people are idioits and just think the free item is free like it was before. Nope you have to spend $35 to get a cheap aff item valued at <$5.00. Bravo kroger.

Give me another reason why I should spend my hard earned paycheck at kroger? No, really? I have been thrown under the bus and kroger is not getting my money any more. There are cheaper local stores to support.

You still gotta do the bare minimum if you decide to quiet quit. The company does notice if you just stop doing your job duties. They have the right to write you up for job abandonment. Just depends on how fast they notice it. You have to do the bare minimum. Just fine tune it to the degree that you can. This l...

I've posted a few times about how an old manager that didn't like me eventually followed me to my current location (8 yrs later). Well.. now he's in charge of my store and being a di-ck to me.

How long do Kroger companies (namely Dillon's Grocery Stores that are located in Kansas) hold onto terminated employees' HR records? My ex husband is a former assistant manager who was terminated in 2013 for reasons that might be helpful to me if I am to reopen our daughter's custody case. I plan to as...

Management always offers empty promises about this or that. They'll lure people in with high promises only to break the reality to that individual later once they're hooked and baited. I do well in this field but have my disgust towards this company like most other people. Our current store manager h...
