  • I am writing this because I want people to know the truth about this company. I began working for Winco as a stocker at this location when it first opened. I was there for almost 7 months. I decided to start a new career and my plans were To grow here and move my way up the ladder. I wanted to work here because they claim that employees are owners of the company. To become an owner you have to accumulate hours and as your hours go up, they begin to place money into an account for you. Something like a 401K. It doesn't start for about a year after you've been there but you must earn and maintain hours in order for it to happen. I was averaging about 50 hours per week. I did great work and surpassed many other younger employees. I am well experienced in many industries and intelligent. I applied for a higher position and I came in 2nd to someone that had been with the company for a very long time. The manager even asked me to reapply when the next position became available because he liked my attitude and work ethic. After about 3 months, my insurance kicked in. My wife and I hadn't been to the doctor in awhile and when my wife went, she was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. After about a month after the insurance started, everyone's hours started getting cut. I was down to about 15 hours a week. If you don't maintain at least 20 hours a week you lose your insurance which I couldn't afford to let happen. You also have no chance of ever becoming an "Owner" at this rate and you can't afford to live on such little money. Many of these people working there couldn't pay their bills because they weren't working enough. You couldn't even afford to shop there, even at their cheap prices. I was very concerned about my wife's health and I didn't want to lose our insurance. All I wanted to do was work. I spoke to the manager and told him the situation and he did nothing. Everyone's hours were cut even more. I had to quit Winco and I went onto COBRA to keep my insurance. This company truly cares nothing about their employees well being but they will make it sound like they do in the beginning. Their philosophy is to get everything can out of you in as little time as possible by working you like a dog and then not work you for days at a time. Winco treats their people like their shit. I have been around for along time and have worked for some of the biggest corporations and this was the worst one ever. I seriously considered going to Channel 13 News but I had more important things to deal with then. I believe in Karma anyway. It has been over a year and my wife is doing well. Thank God
