Kroger allowed me to learn about how a big company operates within technology. Especially as an intern, I got a great chance to be vulnerable and ask a bunch of questions to my surrounding co-workers.

Deli Clerk
June - September 2020 • Mukwonago, WI
What I liked
The flexibility of the schedual and the friendliness of management.
What I wish was different
The application/hiring process took far longer than it should have for a job that only had one interview stage.
Advice
Don't under-sell yourself. I went to this job with restaurant experience which was applicable and ended up getting starting pay because I did not ask for more in the interview. I know that if I would have pushed for more with my experience I would have been making above their starter pay.
