Pros

One of the many traits I admire at Wegmans is how friendly the other employees are. Managment is very easy going and easy to communicate. Managment always likes get work done efficiently. The company goes out of its way in making sure that you are properly trained in the latest ways of doing your work. I always leave work feeling good about myself. During peak periods the team spirit is not lackadaisical. No matter what obstical we face we always come together to get the job done. The company also has a vested interest in everybodies health, which is critical in these days of ever rising health care cost. They provide us with a plethora of information on health and diet. They even gives us free fruits and vegetables every day. This is the best place I ever worked for.

Cons

The hours are not temporally consistent. In other words they vary in length, start and end time. Some of the Front End Dept. people can be a little gossipy.

Pros

The medical benefits for part time employees are great. The department and store managers are typically great to work with. They have an onsite HR person to talk to if you have any issues. They are flexible with work schedules and you can cross train in multiple departments. Tuition reimbursement is great.

Cons

It is really hard to get a full time position at all, let alone one in a department where you want to work. Also near impossible to move into corporate offices without having someone you are related to already working there. You have to be willing to work nights and weekends due to the store hours.
