Benefits comparable industry-wide. Pay is also very competitive for the industry. More so for salaried associates rather than hourly associates. There is also a ridiculous amount of opportunity to have a 100K + a year job with little to no formal education. The time frame to reach management varies and isn't based on any specific departmental skill. You can reach SM position from any sub-department; CS, Deli, Meat, Grocery (which is the most difficult), Bakery, or Produce. The job is relatively easy though doing it well (no matter what you do) can prove challenging for people who; cannot provide good customer service, lack even marginal work ethic, lack follow through in terms of progressing their training and realizing their opportunities leading to positions of management. It's a family-like work environment in good ways such as supporting your growth with the company and in your personal life through community outreach programs like United Way. The job is also extremely hard to lose. Stability is a rarity these days and it requires a sub-par IQ to get fired from this job. Summary: Stock Options, Medical, Dental, 401k, enormous opportunity, four inventory bonuses a year, up to three weeks pay Christmas bonus (FT only -- which can be floated throughout the year), work-through vacations (if approved by management), prescription discount program, and as of recent, free Flu shots.

They are very active in severy charities, so there is a sense of purpose and a sense of reaching out to the community.
