Pros

Cook-outs and fun work events

Cons

As an employee who has worked for this company for some time, I feel that it is my responsibility to share my experiences with others who may be considering a career there. First and foremost, the management at this company sets an extremely poor example for their employees. They consistently arrive late and leave early, but they will come down hard on their employees for taking an extra two minutes during their lunch break. This behavior creates an atmosphere of distrust and disrespect. Furthermore, the management treats their employees like children. They are constantly looking over their shoulders, micromanaging their work, and are quick to criticize their mistakes. This lack of trust and respect is felt throughout the company, and it creates a toxic work environment. It's also worth noting that the management gives special perks and privileges to their family members, who also work at the company. This creates an unfair advantage, and it's demoralizing to see someone receive preferential treatment based on nepotism. Additionally, the management is not open to new ideas or improvements. They seem to believe that the way things have always been done is the best way to do them, and are not interested in hearing feedback or suggestions from their employees. This lack of flexibility and willingness to evolve makes it difficult for the company to stay competitive. Lastly, the management is not flexible when it comes to employees who are dealing with family issues. They seem to lack empathy and understanding and are quick to penalize employees who need to take time off or make changes to their schedules. Overall, my experience working at this company has been extremely negative due to the management's behavior and attitude. I would not recommend this company to anyone who is looking for a supportive and respectful work environment.

Pros

1. Company is constantly growing and changing, always feel there are new opportunities for my individual growth. 2. After 4 years I can confirm they focus on employee benefits and growth. 3. With the company growing it still feels like a family business, I can go and speak with any level of management to raise concerns and have always felt they respected my time. 4. Work life and balance is respected and employee well being feels like a focus from management. 5. I like the work culture, a lot of this comes from the transparency of management. I often have fun and enjoy working for this company. 6. Personally I started in the warehouse and advanced into the IT Dept. I had some prior experience in this field but my bulk was in shipping/receiving. The company saw me as a good fit and trained me in this position. I've seen them invest in their employee's a lot over my time here and it's the biggest positive thing I could say about them. It's been 3 years since this transition and I am very thankful they took this chance on me.

Cons

1. It can be a fast-paced environment depending on the season, when it's peak season the workload / hours can increase to meet demand. 2. Not all holidays off due to shipping requirements.
