Pros

Weekly Pay, Co-Workers, Not Terribly Stressful

Cons

The company motto, “More For Less” is exactly what they wring out of their employees… As little pay and benefits as possible with the most expectation and responsibility. The same as most other retail businesses.

Pros

Good hours, easy to learn, lots of shift flexibility, and well-organized.

Cons

As a nofrills model it tends to have lower quality and lower condition produce. You may have to deal with more moldy/rotten produce. Easy to clean up though.

Pros

The few coworkers I was with were nice.

Cons

Small wages for monotonous overnight work. They also lied about my hours. A quarter of my paycheck when to a union that I received no benefits from. My supervisor then gave me a phone number that led to no where after letting me go, claiming the number would reimburse me for the union money.
