Pros

Flexible hours, can work from home sometimes. Meijer always strives to be on the cutting edge of the latest technology for the retail business.

Cons

Long hours on larger projects, lots of pressure and red tape in their project implementation process. IT department reorganization means that IBM and Cap Gemini are responsible for much of the routine program support and maintenance, so IT team members are on edge after the Oct. 2017 restructure, which changed the earlier 'Meijer IT family' comradery to be more dismal / depressing place to work, with less job security than any time in Meijer history.

Pros

Great company and benefits. The Meijer Credit Union is amazing and being able to work remote is a blessing.

Cons

Not much recognition for individual contribution. Recognition systems on the whole are great though especially for the company's size

Pros

Direct coworkers were great to work with. I also enjoyed being left to do my work and not babysat by management.

Cons

Management doesn't know what they are doing. Resets and floor plans were regularly not done properly. The store I worked at has a skeleton crew so I never got help (but was expected to stop everything I'm going to go help other departments/areas). Also meaning good luck to any customers needing help, especially when I was the only person working my area of the store, so when I wasn't there, no one was. Management also regularly disappeared into the offices or were on vacation. Also was terminated for reasons outside my control even though I was told they look at the reasons for attendance incidents before termination. Never got to get the FMLA or accommodation to my doctors before being terminated two days after I requested them. Didn't bother asking for a raise either. I did multiple times and got nothing.
