I worked for a corporation for 3 years. Had to join a union, they took dues out of my paycheck weekly. I endured a lot of wrongdoings there by management. Was suspended several times for things I did not do. I continue to work there and be harassed, treated badly I could go on and on about the things that happened to me there I was physically abused verbally abused. Reported this to the union, they always check the side of management. And I accepted suspensions over and over for things I did not do. Had a couple of meetings with the Union where I was told to keep my mouth shut that what was important was getting my job back. I had to leave that job because of the harassment. About 2 weeks ago I got a call from someone at UFCW saying they wanted to take care of this issue. Because when I left such job, the union wanted nothing to do with me. Spoke with this representative about 2 weeks ago and was told I would hear back. Of course I never heard back. Now here I am without a job. And I paid all those union dues for 3 years. Only so that they could help management. Remember you're rights you pay the union to work for you. And when I sent them an email asking them what I paid union dues for. They sent me a copy of my contract that I signed when I started there saying I would pay union dues. Yes, I did sign it. But it also said in that contract that they would protect me. Who protected me? Now here I am without a job and they are off the hook. I guess by signing that contract, I was saying it's okay for me to be abused. I come to u and you do nothing about it. Now that's a waste of money for a minimum wage job

Ufcw 3000 has gone really down hill in the past few years. This union is utterly useless and makes a lot of people leave the union in it self. This is the first job I've ever had with a binding contract of rights. Equal pay and equal rights to all regardless of age, sex, religion and disability. At first I thought it was great until I dipped my feet into this corrupt system further and realized how useless the union truly is to fight for the rights of their workers. Companies know this and they take advantage of it. I've been with Kroger for over 17 years and seen how far this union has degraded. How terrible it is to work for grocery. How terrible it is to work for grocery with a disability. How sad it is that people with disabilities just get shoved in one position and that's it for their whole career and they have to repeatedly fight for their rights left and right. I've seen many rights this union has lost us over the years and how our current rights are but a fraction of what they use to be. We keep having to fight New hires are pretty much screwed in this union and get the worst rights. Older contracted staff on older red eye rights get to keep all the good rights and wages while every one else is pretty much screwed over. This union use to be active with its employees at the store levels. This year we had a major issue develop and I/we tried to repeatedly contact the union. Only to find the union doesn't answer their damn phones. We had to contact the main line and it was still hard pressed to contact anyone. We had a pretty severe issue of our rights being violated and it was ongoing. After a while the union gave up on us all together and I had to end it with the biggest ethics report my company has seen in a while. Union failed for us where ethics stepped in. While ethics investigated the story is still the same and no wrongs were fixed and made right again. In decades gone by the union use to be able to fix wrongs into rights and now they just keep spewing garbage about how they can't do anything for us because of this or that. That really makes me loose faith in this union. It's sad the new hires ore anyone hired after 2010 got basically screwed in the contracts. This generates high turn over and a lack of long term interest in these kinds of jobs for employment. Due to the toxic work environments, no one wants to stay and it has begun to develop a negative review for internal politics for the work place atmosphere. Kroger keeps holding into greed and would rather have minimum wage nobodies with zero working rights and be done with the union all together. It doesn't have the best news timing when it decides to close under performing stores. They could honestly care less about their public reputation. The company keeps trying to do away with the one company in the Kroger family with the highest waged individuals. For years the company has been threatening to liquidate that branch of stores and I think what's stopping them is the union. The union also prevents them from outsourcing union jobs to other companies and thus taking away union protected working jobs. There are many times in the past few years I've had to contact the union for help. I am highly disappointed in this union and how far away it's gotten from helping staff at the store level. In old school days they'd be all over garbage at the store levels. Now they're barely present and ghost is an under statement. Me and two others are experiencing bias and sexism in our work place and the union pretty much came up with "Oh, I'm sorry we can't help you due to how the terminology is worded." Okay, gee thanks I feel so valued as a worker. We're getting the short end of the stick and the kick to the curb and you're not doing anything to support our rights. Yea, thanks! I filed a major ethics report that caught the attention of the big wigs and they're actually getting involved where the union failed. Personally I decided to move onto future opportunities in the near future and 18 years in this industry and this is honestly how we're treated? No thank you.
