Pros

None, company expects a lot of work done for low wages. No type of training program in place, set up for failure.

Cons

Start with management, daily huddles with negative feedback daily. I have no clue how any of these managers got hired to do what they do. They tell people to just work and never talk yet they walk around and laugh and joke around. Ever heard of lead by example? I guess there work ethic is party hard and never work, an absolute disgrace............

Pros

Pay incentives are available for cross-training in different areas of the warehouse (picking, packing, inventory). Performance bonuses (hitting 100%, 110%, 120% of standard rates) can boost your hourly pay. In the best-case scenario, base pay of ~$17.50 can approach $20 within a year.

Cons

Expect to be blindsided with 10-hour days and mandatory overtime, often with little to no notice. The attendance policy is ruthless and point-based, punishing even reasonable life circumstances. Management is more concerned with policing employees than actually leading; many seem untrained and ineffective. Work-life balance is virtually non-existent at times; if you have kids, health concerns, or value a stable 40-hour week, this place will drain you quickly.
