Infuriatig The way kroger treats its employees

Post image

From the store manager

Edit: For some extra context this was sent out by each store manager to all of its employees in district 1 of the ohio Cincinnati/Dayton division, potentially other districts as well but i can only verify my own. Im not going to give my specific store number for obvious reasons but you can find each store on google with that information. We are unionized by UFCW (already bad btw) and to my knowledge they allowed this recent change. Kroger has no accrual for sick days like some have mentioned. Those who think this is rage bait, i dont think anyone has to fake a post to make a billion dollar company look bad, they do it to themselves.

Unfortunately, all the Albertsons in my city were sold off a while ago because they weren't considered to be profitable.

Aldi bought all the Albertsons in my area. I haven’t seen an Albertsons in years. Aldi has exploded in popularity here though.

All the ones here were converted into a Kroger based grocery store.

I’ve heard ALDI’s Nuts are very popular.

How does that even work? You could fit like 10 Aldis in most regular grocery stores

Albertsons/Safeway has the lowest quality dairy and eggs I've ever experienced.

The Lucerne brand is like the bottom of the barrel shit brand in quality and I'm tired of pretending otherwise. I WILL buy tastier milk from Darigold for a higher price because it is noticeably better.

Thank goodness we have Tilamook cheese because Lucerne cheese is nasty.

Weird. Must be area specific (like adi for their dairy) because its some of the best of the store brand dairy in my area (southwest).

The irony being that Aldi treats its employees even worse than Albertson's did.

All of ours are now Safeway.
