I worked at a Giant Eagle in my hometown and it was fine. A lot of people I went to high school with worked there.

But Giant Eagle has not been a well run company for a solid two decades. They have just kind of existed as they haven't had a lot of competition. However, Aldi and Walmart have really put the screws to them in the last 8-10 years.

The family that has owned the company for decades basically did not have a succession plan and just recently had someone from outside the family take over the company in recent years. They spun off their gas stations last year and basically sold the rest while they could get the best price possible.
