Vantaggi

Main positive is that this company gave me a job in a tough economy. Pay was okay compared with other grocery store jobs, but still not enough to live on comfortably. Work was physically demanding, so I got in shape and gave up my gym membership.

Svantaggi

This company went downhill after the original owner died. They hired a new CEO and started treating employees like garbage by taking away their health insurance and creating more and more arbitrary and nonsensical rules to make work difficult. The place is very cultish as well…it was as if many of my co-workers had drank the proverbial "Kool-Aid" and didn't realize the obvious…that they were working in a grocery store that sells designer food to self-entitled rich people. I firmly believe that most employees had some sort of mental illness and were working there as a result, since many had college degrees.
