Pros

For how poorly Meijer treats their employees, they have some incredibe talent on their digital team...when there was a digital team.

Cons

My time at Meijer was the most stressful, pointless, and frustrating of my career. They have some truly incredible talent that they neither optimize nor appreciate. Management is not forward thinking or innovative, and they are completely unresceptive to new ideas or a "bottom up" approach. The seemingly arbitrary "direction" of leadership I experienced during my time there was baffling. If you are considering this company as a potential employer, save yourself some serious anxiety and take your talent elsewhere. This company is a blemish on my resume and I am deeply disappointed that I made the mistake of wasting my time there.

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.
