When Dina is pouring her heart out to Amy in the tornado shelter, working her way through all the sorrows she's ever had, she says, "Nobody tells you at six years old that you can't give chocolate to a dog", clearly implying that she accidentally killed a dog when she was six.

Mateo puts a bird in a bag and kills it. No gore is seen, but it's... just, in the episofe where they're catching a crow in the store, don't watch past the point where Garrett realizes he doesn't hate the crow.

An employee keeps pretending to have an alcohol problem for attention. Everybody seems to believe her, and they mention it to each other now and then (in a gossipy kind of way, not expressing concern).

As well as what's already been mentioned, a woman in the first season mentions a man makes uncomfortable comments about her breasts and calls her house, it's dismissed by the narrative as a joke.

The climax of S4E5 includes a C-section and we see the beginning of the cut (with a tiny bit of blood). S5E10 also has a character accidentally badly cut her hand with a knife as a plot point -- it's not very detailed but we see a lot of blood.

I don't believe so, however there are a few scenes set in tunnels under the store which some viewers may find uncomfortable.

In S2E17 too many bug-bombs are used and both employees and customers are coughing and struggling to breathe because of the toxic fumes, also two employees suffer eye irritation and nosebleeds because of it.

Someone slips on a wet floor, falls and hits the floor hard and looks up with blood dripping from her mouth. Right after that, someone says that she might be getting her jaw wired shut.

One of the older characters dies but you don’t see the death on camera, they talk about it
Also, you see the dead body of another character (not blood stained or with any visable injury)

Glenn dresses as a clown the cheer up employees in the episode where they find the cargo pants. I don’t remember him wearing clown makeup, he just makes balloon animals and does gimmicks like that.

S6E9 The plot of this episode is that some people believe that Zephra is controlling their minds. There is a lot of discussion about that and some discussion about other conspiracy theories.

Also season 4 episode 5. Glen throws up after seeing Dina in surgery, it's weird, he says "I threw up" and then you see the vomit dipping out from under his mask.Personally, It was triggering for me.

Emma gets her first period while at the store and Jonah must help her. She spends this portion of the episode in a bathroom stall, while (unused) pads and tampons are seen on-screen.

Not intensely shaky, but in the season 2 finale, the camera shakes quite a bit and could be upsetting because it happens during a stressful scene.

2 Latina employees are told to give out samples of salsa. 1st refuses, 2nd person accepts work assignment & is given a large sombrero to wear. She uses a fake stereotypic “Mexican” accent when talking to mostly white customers. The 2 women argue later about self-exploitation. when a Filipino employee takes over the assignment, he uses a similar fake “Mexican” accent. When trying to convince him not to use this accent, the 1st employee uses a bad fake east Asian accent. At end, 1st employee who resisted using the fake “Mexican” accent winds up using it.

No serious antisemitism, some very minor antisemitism played for comedic effect. For example, a character who's been shown to be ignorant says "Keep your big nose out of this - and just to be clear, that's not a slur, it's just a phrase."

Somewhat insensitive treatment of mental illness and old-age dementia. A magazine photographer follows an employee in a wheelchair all over the store to get an "inspirational" photo of him for the cover.

Multiple instances, most is fade-to-black but the S3 finale has two characters having sex on-screen. There's pixel censorship over their nudity, though.
