Pros

Decent benefits for full time, discount on all HEB related products, better than minimum wage, full 40 hours if you are full time.

Cons

Depending on the store, managers can change and shift, managers can be unhelpful and ignore requests, full time means completely open availability so they can schedule you whenever and you have no stability unless you are part time. If you are part time, you can't get health insurance or PTO.

Pros

Pay and benefits are good. Can transfer to multiple locations. Opportunities to work in different departments.

Cons

Experience is highly dependent on local store management. Favoritism runs rampant and any chance for promotion must be approved/initiated by direct supervisor. Additional training must be recommended/approved by direct supervisor. Advancement and promotions are not based on skills. Personality and friendship with upper management matters more than skills.
