Pros

Really flexible schedules if you need something off. Great for students. Health insurance is really great. If your store makes money there’s a profit sharing based on your pay and hours worked that quarter (avg about 1000-1200 over a year for me at my store).

Cons

You work every weekend and holidays too you don’t ask off. Management is all about cutting hours and trying to move themselves up the corporate ladder where the money is. Company really use to take care of their stores but now it’s all about cutting hours and early retirements for those who make too much. Grocery business is hard though but HyVee doesn’t really seem to know how to change with the times.

Pros

Paid breaks. Can be lazy and get the same pay as a hard worker.

Cons

Your high efforts are not rewarded. Benefits only include the time you put into retail that can be considered experience. Although you have the title for a specific position you will still be forced to complete tasks of another position. Although I was a checker, I was also put on hot food line, samples, cart duty, cleaning bathrooms, cleaning spills, watching self check out, stocking, and many more. Any sense of enjoyment with other coworkers gets shut down quick by management. Availability can be ignored by management. Lots of drama with coworkers. No penalty for inappropriate and unprofessional work. Management cares about business more than employees even though it is “employee owned”.
