Ralphs Grocery Company EX-EMPLOYEE, THEY TREATED ME BAD, DON'T WORK FOR THEM RIPOFF L.a California

As a former employee of this scandalous company I must first say that the store directors are always in a such a dire need to cut payroll to look good to their superiors. With that they dont have adequate help and you the consumer get to purchase dairy products that have been sitting in room temps for hours. Here is how it goes....First the truck driver will drop the load of cold dairy products off the truck into the back room. The driver is not allowed to store the product in the cooler. The dairy clerk will be in the checkstand waiting on customers for sometimes hours due to the lack of pre-scheduled help. Once the dairy clerk is free from the checkstand he then goes to the back room and stores the dairy products in the cooler, which will later be placed on the shelf for you to purchase. You the consumer will buy the product cold and never think twice about it. The back storage room is almost as hot as the outside temps...there is minimal airconditioning in the back room...due to the product sitting in warm temps for HOURS your products have already began to perish...check and see if the products you purchased go bad before the scheduled date...if so you know what Im saying is true!!!

I worked in the warehouse, and the only thing worse than the company is the corrupt union. Trust me, one day less than five years (vesting) and the union will tell you to your face they don't care about you - they get to keep your 4 + years of retirement and all your union dues don't mean squat.

I had a manager one time tell me it was 'his job to find reasons to fire people'.
This floored me, and was after he yelled at me (on the job less than two months) and asked if I was fu*(ing with him over left-overs at the end of the aisle.

I had another one follow me around and when I was injured, contacted the judge and tried to screw me out of my injury payment, telling them things the judge knew not to be true (not his first time trying to screw an employee out of benifits)

I was told by another manager that ''all employees do stuff to get them fired, I just have to find it.''

One at Riverside left a note for a fork lift driver saying 'n****r get back to work''

If you did your job correctly, they were surprised and shocked, they had thought they designed the audit process to guarantee the employee would mess up. I had one tell me, after a few beers, ''the audits are designed to get people, I have no idea how you passed it. To be honest, it's supposed to be impossible.''

The manager of the facility intentionally got us poor equipment to try to get guys with a long commute to quit, and was frustrated when this didn't happen, expressing to a group of us 'what does it take to get you high paying guys out of here.'

One manager used to have champaign quark fights with the guys before he was promoted, then went around and systematically fired all the guys he used to do that with, since he knew they did it when he worked with them.

This is an evil little company, bought and sold so many times that is has lost all of it's appeal. A corrupt little union ( I saw a senior manager at lunch with my union rep once) that drove the wages up so high the company actually had to try to fire people to maintain...they finally have dropped wages for the new hires.
It's a terrible place to work, you are better off somewhere else.
