Randy can retire now. He finally got the huge state tax cut on retirement benefits that has been the company's #1 legislative priority for years. At the Statehouse, it was nicknamed the "Hy-Vee bill."

Posting as a current long time employee who still works in a store. Could you imagine how great the company could be if the office reached out to its employees and asked for honest and thought out feedback. Asked questions like: How could Hy-Vee... — read more

What else can be said about leadership that creates a job that will be gone in a year? I cannot believe that such a thing can be done by competent people who have a vision and want to make changes for the better here.

For a company that says we "want to be the best place to work and shop in America" they sure are all talk. The top leadership all bends down to whatever Randy the CEO says. No one can have other opinions. If you haven't run a store your opinion... — read more 

Our leadership has a very unhealthy relationship with failures. Instead of admitting their mistakes and trying to correct them, they persistently try to ignore them. The result is that the company goes from one failure to another. Why leadership... — read more

I've been with the company over 20 years and only make 1 dollar more than new hires ! Just awful. You've left out a big base of your loyal workers.🤔☹

There used to be some but now we have subpar pay, lousy managers who have no idea what they're doing, horrible working conditions, and very little chance to advance. Not sure what happened Hy-Vee, but you really need to find a way to get your sh-t... — read more

Costco is now starting at 17 bucks an hour. We thought you wanted to be the best place to work in America. How about starting with competitive pay. Step it up Hy-Vee.

The stores in our area, including the one that I work at are so dirty, unsanitary, and understaffed. Being a manager at the store, I spend maybe 5 percent of the time actually managing and 95 percent of the time checking or home shopping. I refuse to... — read more 

Did anyone see the article about the downtown store? 3rd remodel, I love how they spin stuff, Healthmarket, everyone hates the idea in the comments, I think the Des monies area is starting to figure out why everyone is hating hy-vee!
