I was curious if you can work in the pharmacy without being a pharmacy technician. I'm looking into going to school to be a pharmacy tech and I wanted to see what it was like before I invest money into it.

They have my birth month wrong and i said something like 2 weeks ago and HR was like "well, i just can't get on and change it, it's a complicated process but i'll see what i can do" and still, it hasn't been fixed.

i was told their was a website we could check to see all the kroger openings. We occasionally get job listings psted in our break room but those are only for our district and i was told online we could check all jobs.

I can't believe Local 540 did this, but I should expect it none the less. They have truly sold the younger generations out on this contract. It was mentioned that I can never get more than 1 PERSONAL HOLIDAY since I was hired after June 13, 2004. How could Local 540 allow them to add this into the contract?...

I'm waiting for my drug test to come back. I was told I would be receiving a phone call Saturday if I pass ( which I will ). I'm wondering how long it'll be before orientation.

I don't do drugs at all so that's not possible unless i got false positive. I also noticed my test was sent to Denver im in Michigan. It takes 3-5 days for mail to be deliver...

I was just promoted from Daytime Utility clerk to Regular Clerk. I've been with kroger for 18 months and I make 7.90 which is the daytime utility clerk rate. There is no 7.90 in my Kroger Union agreement book. There is a 7.85 rate for clerks who have worked 37 - 42 months and the next rate is 8.95 for 43 - 48 m...

Do all corporate offices outside of the Mid-South area expect 70+ hours out of each store manager every week? First we are told we have to work one Sunday a month, now you basically have to work every Sunday to meet their expectations, next it was close on the Tuesday before Senior Day - which means you h...

There comes a time when one has to always wonder if what they are doing is realistic in what the company, they work for, is asking them to do. Have been with Kroger for well over 20 years and all in the meat department. Have seen a lot of things change and almost every one for the best key retailing and the dif...

I went to get my schedule one week and noticed that my hours were cut. I also noticed I had an extra day off. I didn't request it nor did I change my availability. I asked if this could be fixed and was told there was no way. When I asked why I was told that sales were down because business was slow. I found out...

I just got locked into full time status because I completed 12 weeks of working 40 hours. When I was hired the HR manager said that my pay rate will increase to $12.80 once I have completed those 12 weeks of 40 hours. I was told that I will qualify for top pay based on my 5 years of previous deli experience. B...

At my store, they have started cross-training everybody to run a register besides meat & deli employees. The worst part is that they're calling up department heads to check. My problem with this is that they will call up the department heads frequently and distract them from writing orders, or o...
