In my opinion,this place is horrible! Some coworkers are cool,but if you apply within the fall or during a pandemic it's hell. They treated me like a slave since day 1.I worked GM and cashiering. Supposedly, "everyone does cashiering nomatter what," (which isn't true). Only the people who don't want to be a cashier get trained (particularly young people able to run the cash register). No consideration about mental health. They don't care about you one bit; it's customers first because it's all about the money. Turnover is constant (never enough people and people coming and going in groups alot). You shouldn't have to be forced to cashier if you don't want to and you shouldn't have to wait until your mental health hits rock bottom to the point where you have to get a doctor's note proving the stress/ anxiety just to have the doctor force them not to take advantage of you. I didn't get a doctor's note for my anxiety/ stress, but that's pretty much the only way to get out of cashiering.
I started work at Meijer in Round Lake Beach, IL on February 25, 2020. Meijer provides an inclusive, welcoming, and recognizing workplace, with loads of benefits including insurance, Team Member discount, and best of all college tuition reimbursement.
When you start work, you can immediately feel how much more peaceful it feels compared to the work environments of Target or Walmart, and it's evident in the customer base that they provide a friendly experience for everyone. You never hear anyone claim to love shopping at Walmart, but people instantly enter their mPerks rewards number to see what coupons they get towards their next shopping trip, and walk out the door with an ear to ear grin.
Training at Meijer on the computer finishes up in less than 2 days, and once you're into the workplace, it's an incredibly easy job (especially the gas station, you basically get paid to work a register, clean/stock, and get to know the customers and that's it).

I honestly have nothing negative to say about Meijer, between the smiling faces I see everyday on my managers and our customers, and the amazing benefits that the company offers I am overjoyed! Walking into work in the morning is a happy moment for me, knowing that I am an integral part of everyone's everyday life! The approach to the COVID-19 outbreak has also been remarkable, and they are doing everything to ensure both ours and our customers health and safety!
