Lees MarketPlace

Lee's is a very community-based company with lots of support of groups and individuals.  They offer lots of things to the people who shop there but less towards the employees.  Management sometimes struggles with keeping things in order as well as treating employees as customers when they're not working and shopping at the store.  I enjoy some of the people I work with but certain others are not qualified for a job and usually end up being fired or quitting before long.  One of the hardest things is dealing with customers who are very stubborn but I usually can handle the problem pretty well and can find a solution that makes everyone happy.  A typical day for me involves getting to work and then counting my till so I can check for 6 to 8 hours.  I usually have some chores to do as well such as taking out garbages or cleaning counters.  In down time, I try to find other things to do as well that are more beneficial than just standing around.

If you are over thirty do not plan on any chance for advancement. Setting record sales means that you are still not doing good enough. Females are kept in food preparation only and not allowed to advance unless they are related to owner or the owners friends. I have watched Hispanics and Catholics fired because they do not fit into the local culture. The N word is used often if you happen to have an African American working at your store. My favorite quote is a Manager preparing food saying, "I don't have time to wash my hands," . They love hiring managers between the age of 19 and 25 so they can work them hard until they finally give up and quit. Giving them a lot of labor at very little pay. Horrible culture full of abuse. I was never allowed to take breaks including lunch breaks. Eight hours non stop on your feet is expected with dirty looks when bathroom visits are requested.

Lee's is a great company to work for it's a very happy and friendly enviorment. I was cross trained in different areas in this job so I am very well trained in many things. I can cook, use a fryer, throw loads, prepare salads, provide a clean enviorment, order food and packaging. I am great with customers and providing them everything they need and want. I am always wanting respectful and honest opinions so I can change them in the future. I love to listen and hear others out with ideas, promotions,creativity because there is so much talent everywhere. The hadrest part of the job is probably some of my co-workers who are lazy and I have to pick up their slack or do the one job that can't get done, it's very frustrating, but I don't mind because I know someone will hopefully appreciate my work. Also not being appreciated enough is hard and watching others get favored is another hard job but that will not stop me from doing my job better.

Most of the day shift is spent bagging groceries and collecting carts. If given a night shift, then about 7pm, you head to the aisles to face and front the shelves. This entails bringing at least two items forward, stacked one in front of the other, and doing so with each item on the shelf to give a clean, professional environment.
You must learn to work fast and efficiently while completing each task.
Management is fun and great to work with.
Other team members are very friendly and you bond with them easily, making work very enjoyable.
If you have the night shift, easily facing and fronting is the most difficult task. When you first start out, you take longer then most baggers because you aren't used to organizing and it takes time to make sure you did it right.
Most enjoyable part is making friends at work and having a great time.

Corporate does the bare minimum to compensate their employees during this pandemic.   They along with management,  are too busy critiquing you during this pandemic instead of building you up.  Neashia Price, the HR hiring manager, has nothing better to do but  make up lies, stir up problems, forcing employees to quit.   And on top of that, when you are eligible for health insurance and your raise, they promise to give it to you, but try all they can not to.   It’s like pulling teeth to get it and the back pay they owe you.   Also, employees were no shows and didn’t show up for work.  That’s how bad they hated it.   When the employees didn’t show up, no disciplinary action was done.  But it was for others.  They pick and choose who they like and if they don’t like you, you are forced to quit.  

Coworkers were great, loved working with them, and had little to no issues with them. Department mainly kept to itself. Work was repetitive and sometimes you'd get unsatisfied customers here and there. Pay was ok, however raises were low. Mainly it would be 2-3 of us working, depending on the shift. You'll mainly be on your feet, answering phone calls, stocking items, going to the freezer, decorating cookies/brownies, cleaning the department, and talking to customers. You'll need good shoes. You are provided one break, but almost everyone I worked with (in the evening) didn't take the break as you'd be put behind. Evening crew helped each other and rotated cleaning.

I’d clock in and report to my area for the day. Sometimes I was front end, or produce, general grocery, and even the deli. I learned a lot about working in a bigger team and how key communication is when there are so many involved. I never really had problems with management but there were employees who were vindictive and cruel, but there was nothing to be done about it. Vital employee or something. But the friends I made there will continue to have an impact on my life well after knowing them. 

I would come to work, get my register ready about 5 minutes before.i learned to be patient,  smile,  be friendly,  and talk to people.  It was a great work place, everyone helped each other and got along. The hardest part of the job was when customers were angry.  The most enjoyable part of the job was the customers that were happy and would talk to you about anything.  Sometimes I felt like a bar tender.  The customers trusted me.  

I would get to work and clock in, walk up to the front desk and get a till. Id pick a check stand and get ready and prepared for costumers.I would be greeted by my fellow co-workers and all the managers there. If there was something that I needed to be aware of and look out for that day, I would be informed and be ready to start my day.
The most enjoyable part of my job, was the people and friends I made while working there. I loved coming into work and knowing I had friends and people to talk too, who actually cared about me and my life.

Lee's Marketplace is a great place to work with a great working environment. Lee's sincerely cares about there employees and wants them to succeed. They always promote from within and work with you to climb the ladder within the company. They have excellent benefits and pay fair wages. This grocery store takes pride in quantity products, excellent customer service,  and a bright, clean store. I highly recommend this company to everyone.
