Toxic Company - Pickup Lead Kroger Employee Review

Incredibly toxic company. Management that has been around more than 10 years is usually good, but managers with less than 10 years and district staff are terrible. Advancement from Assistant Manager and up seems to be based on sucking up rather than merit, competence, or even seniority. My last district manager had no clue about how pickup worked and wanted insane metrics to be hit, like 100% pick rate. I still don't know how to hit 100% when the shelves are bare, and in that case, it's your fault for not getting the item from thin air, rather than the warehouse or transport's fault for either not getting it in or not bringing it to the store. Constant hour cuts. They expect one person to do the work of 10 people. I wouldn't be surprised if they tried to run a Marketplace location with a dozen people. The company always pleads poverty when it comes to increasing pay, while making well over projected profits.
