What do you like best about the leadership team?
I do not feel that promotions are fairly being given. I mean, you can have years of experience but if you dont have years with Safeway, you are treated unfairly and not even interviewed for the position. I do not feel comfortable giving my name because I do not want backlash.
Review from Sales Dept
The management at safeway is very childish, they play games with peoples lives, if they for some reason don't like you they will cut you down to 5 hours a week.
Review from Sales Dept
I dont know honestly, they dont deal with lower level
Review from Sales Dept
They are very clever and engaging
Review from Sales Dept
The time they take to make your job better
Review from Sales Dept
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Hiring competent management who have good leadership skills.ie: willing to take responsibility for their mistakes and not using their downteam to take the blame to make themselves look good
Review from Sales Dept
My immediate supervisor has no management skills. She takes the time off she wants and everyone else works around her schedule. She gets employees to take care of her animals while she is on vacation and apparently offers them "good" schedules in return for the help. Store Director turn a blind eye.
Review from Sales Dept
Store manager needs to either learn how his sub-depts work in order to better support the dept managers, or stop actively impeding them from doing their job by constantly changing schedules/hires after the dept manager has done them. Awful store management.
Review from Sales Dept
Managers need to treat all employees equally, not picking favorites.
Review from Sales Dept
Support and pay the employees fairly
Review from Sales Dept
What is the best part about your compensation package?
For the job I do, I am paid well however, I am not happy with not being interviewed for positions especially when I am qualified for the position
Review from Sales Dept
The vision package is supreme
Review from Sales Dept
The paid vacation and health insurance
Review from Sales Dept
leave, pay, hours, health ins

Review from Sales Dept
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
I've put in 1,100 hours at safeway so far. And got a 10 cent raise for it. That's a slap in the face. Starting wage is 10 cents over minimum, they do not pay you higher because of experience. So now I've worked there almost a year and make 20 cents over minimum wage. More per hour would be nice.
Review from Sales Dept
Pay is wildly varied despite being scheduled the same number of hours every week, resources like PTO are impossible to track/access.
Review from Sales Dept
Actually being listened to, my skills actually being put to use instead of sticking me in a dead end where none of it matters.
Review from Sales Dept
I asked for a raise and was told I was at the height of what I can earn at my current position. I am worth more than I am making and I have more responsibilities that are unaccounted for.

I think the company culture at our company is great.
Review from Sales Dept
Do a complete change in management. Some departments need it more than others. But someone who is qualified and actually knows what they're doing....not bring in someone with no management skills or history -- or someone who has been with the company for four months -- and put them in charge.
Review from Sales Dept
Get better people to work there.

What would you improve about your company's interview process?
If I'm called in under the auspices of a certain job applied for, they should tell me that they are trying to give me a different position than the one they ended up offering me
Review from Sales Dept
how about being fair to all employees trying to move up and equally interviewing them when qualified?
Review from Sales Dept
Asking questions that someone with a disadvantage of knowledge in particular area during important interviews just so someone else who would know because of the department they are in gets the position even though they are incompetent.
