I only have one major complaint. their part-time position hours. I applied for part-time which was advertised as being under 30 hours per week, so I knew from the start that I wouldn't be having a 40-hour a week paycheck. Then when I was officially hired and signed all the paperwork accepting the role, the average expected hours a week stated to be 25. That would've been great, perfect for my lifestyle. When I started I got around 20 hours a week and that was okay too. But as soon as the training hours ended (after 75 hours I believe) I started getting my share of hours left for part timers(after management and full timers get theirs, I assume) ... And I would say I get an average of 11 hours a week. When they have all three part-time positions filled, they split up the hours pretty evenly amongst us and each week each get between 8 and 14... Week after week. Until one of the part timers quit (probably due to not being able to make ends meet with the crap hours) and then me and the other person each get 22-27 hours a week(perfect for both of us) But that is only till they hire that other part time person... What sense does that make? If you only have 40 to 55 hours a week left to give to your part-time employees, and you happen to have 2 on your payroll who are good workers, reliable and dependable, and are willing and WANT to work that many hours..... AND no scheduling issues happen.... Why hire a third person then? It doesn't make sense to me. Ive heard it's because they don't think they'll have the staff cover the hours on the weeks during the year when full time associates take their vacation time, or call in. It doesn't seem fair or logical to me, to keep somebody around just for the few weeks of the year that youre actually going to need them. I'm not sure what the solution is but you're never going to keep a part time staff like that. Especially when you give them the impression they'll get an average of 25 hrs/week when they accept the job. How many more hours are you wasting on training person after person? The assistant managers who have to do the training must get exhausted. And in the next town over from me, the part-timers at Aldi have it much worse. They don't even get put on the schedule most of the time because there are no hours available. Literally zero hours a week. It's so messed up. So they just have to wait to get a paycheck until a full-time associate decides to take some of their vacation time??. Too bad our bills don't wait.
