How old were you when you got the job? Have you considered Stop & Shop as a full-time career? Any horror stories with customers? How do the managers treat you (If you're a manager already, cool!.. how do you treat other co-workers?)

I was 15 when I got the job (that's the youngest that they hire). I have not considered Stop & Shop as a full time career (at least at my local Stop & Shop) because I do not like my manager and I will tell you why in a minute. One "horror story" is when a customer ordered (literally) 70 bananas. Then, she took out about 50 coupons to pay for them. She ended up saving about $100 but the customers behind her were pissed because of how long it took to scan the coupons. I *** hate my manager. The main reason is when she gave me my locker. In the locker (when I first opened it) was someone else's shirt, pants, hat, lint remover, old newspaper, and a plate with a rooster on it. I talked to her about it and she didnt do anything and told me to handle it. I burned the clothes, broke the plate, and threw away the lint remover.

Pros of working at Stop & Shop

Every day is different, and that permits varying levels of employee and customer interactions for me to recognize, solve, and implement solutions for best in class service on a managerial level. There are daily changing variables that allow me to problem solve in an efficient and creative manner. I am always able to showcase my abilities to multitask, prioritize, delegate, communicate, and manage a diverse team across multiple departments.

Cons of working at Stop & Shop

The pace of upwards progression and accountability are not up to the standards I believe they should be at. Other than that, the pay is too low for my daily workload, skill set and attributions towards daily business succes. The pay is not comparable to local competitors in the region.

Stop & Shop benefits

I have better than average health care coverage and company contributions to HSA's and 401k's.

I worked at Stop and Shop for 8 months doing cashiering/service desk/self checkouts. The job itself was boring but the people were what made it good. I guess most people can say that about any jobs though.

I agree. But I really like the other cashiers that I work with. They are all down to earth and easy to talk to.

Are they good to you? Are you in MA?

Define "good." I told the story about my first locker in another post, but other than that I'm treated fine. I can not disclose my location because I do not want to be fired :P but no I do not live in MA.
