Safeway Employee Reviews for Anonymous Employee

"Management and reality are not regular friends. Management and truth are completely un-acquitted."

"I love my job but I am wanting to get back to being a project manager. That's where I am most happy with. Safeway is a great company to work for and to grow with ."

"Merger with Albertsons is an on-going blood bath with many layoffs. Stay away, don't join, leave if possible."

"Good place to work if you are in between jobs, or if you want to make a life out of working out of a grocery store. Nothing at all wrong with that but I just want more out of life personally."

"The worst place to work at."

"I have been at safeway for over six years. Please do yourself a favor and DONT LET YOURSELF OR ANYONE YOU LOVE GET STUCK HERE! Management thinks nothing of demeaning their workers for the sake of the customer. While the customer is the most important thing for a company like this, the company does not need to let their workers be verbally abused or treated like servants."

"It was great. I enjoyed working with this company as a non-union member."

"I worked at Safeway for one year as Operations Manager. The company had a healthy culture but became unstable as the owner's heart was not true. I am not sure how long it will stay in business."

"Came in as a helper, even after I told the guy I was a carpenter with a year and a half experience in the same refinery. He said "I'm sorry, that's all we're hiring for right now!" Needless to say I'm off the ground everyday with my tools and harness either building or demo, never on the ground, never! I only make $12/hr passing down material to a guy making $14/hr shuffling his feet all day. I'm a good guy, I'm 33 w/ a wife and four kids but my income is barely putting a roof over our heads."

"I worked for Safeway over the summer of 2013 while I was away from college. My experience was wholly negative, with issues beginning the day after I finished training. Between horrible hours, chronic under staffing, rude supervisors, low pay, and an insane turnover rate, working for a few months at Safeway has left a bad taste in my mouth for the past year. I previously worked at Fred Meyer, and now work in a kitchen, and can say without a doubt that Safeway was the worst job I have held."
