How can you work at Kroger for 5+ years? I talked to many of my coworkers today or overheard that they've been working at kroger for 5+, 15+, or 40+ years since they was 14 or 15 years old! When I ask them how could they do it. It was either financial struggle growing up, neede experience, looking for drea...

So, the white screen app only shows one week for your schedule. So that means that on Friday, I cant see what I work on the next Fri, and Sat. Finally, on Sunday, I can see my full schedule! Not surprising that Kroger would adopt an app that has atrocious reviews.

Dear Seniors: I can not tell you how many times a day seniors cut in line and it is very disrespectful to the rest of us ranging in age from <10-<70 years of age and I can not tell you how baffled I am by your self entitlement to cut in line. This is getting old. You have one item. You can go through self ch...

You read that right. Working conditions, wages and hours---especially for you newbies---are horrendous. The benefits, if you even qualify for any, aren't any better. Think that joke of a union gonna help you? Like all unions in this country they've been bought by the companies you're paying them...

First kroger only gave us about 1 month advance notice before going back to normal hours. Yet staffing is still a mess and most of our departments are still "closed" during the day time hrs due to failing to fill the shift slots. Kroger going back to normal hrs will not increase your sales. They'll hurt i...

Elon musk bought it for 44 billion. Any chance it will be less of a cesspool now?

How much do part timers make? How many hours for the week? Can I do 4 days a week?

Curious question (please take this in light manner). How do you reach the 5 year mark? Also I wonder if the kroger culture differs between coast to coast.

Bro Kroger need to find more people to hire. Like in our store today we had no C.C and all of the carts on the left side of the store was empty inside. I'm a new hire producer and I needed a cart to add the boxes in once the fruit is put out. So I had to run outside to get a basket and run back in THREE TIMES because on...

This happened recently about 1 month ago? If anyone from store spoke too soon publicly without covering the store division and store itself...then we will all know...it's a small town. Few or some or many customers claimed they got sick because of a cashier (racial discrimination). Heard whispers...

At Kroger is a head of a department allowed to date a backup of the same department? I heard you can be fired for it.

If Starbucks is closed due to lack of staff: Don't come harass the cashiers about it or the closest associate. We can't do squat about there being lack of staff. Before Starbucks became unionized we use to be able to pull staff from the deli now that they're in their own union separate from ours; we can't...

I have blocked her and reported it to the Union. Anyone know if one can block by name on Gmail, so they get a reject message when they try to contact me? The block I have has her emails going straight to my spam folder.

In 2021, there's a customer in a wheel chair that comes in to shop-usually buying a cart load of items. While I was working in the aisle, he will come to my aisle, stares at me, and once put his hand on my pocket claiming there's something on your pants (um, my apron and my chap stick)...his helper that come...
