Pros
the friends i made under a toxic, violently unsafe work environment.
Cons
please do not work here. it is not worth your mental or physical health. listed below is only the warehouse environment. i don’t even want to think about the drivers or the kitchen’s suffering. - harvie started as a tech business and it REALLY shows. the CEO and COO have no idea how to run a warehouse, let alone one that processes food. - there are incalculable basic warehouse safety concerns, both personnel and food-related, that have been brought to management multiple times and have either been flat out ignored or not addressed. - management will blatantly lie to you and ignore problems within the working environment. - the CEO will tout the minor carbon footprint and environmental benefits of harvie while keeping the (physically unsafe and continuously broken) refrigerator trailers used for food storage running on DIESEL because the warehouse they bought will not support the electric load of 4 to 6 refrigerator trailers - they use AI generators for ALL website text, including prepared food descriptions, which are often very wrong. things are labeled gluten free, soy free, etc without actually being so. this is incredibly dangerous to people with allergies - they “branched into new markets” because they aren’t making enough money in pittsburgh. they can’t even figure out how to run a business in pittsburgh, so they think shipping from pittsburgh to philadelphia is smart? - they have changed the career ladder five times in the two years i was employed. the likelihood that anyone will have any upward mobility or an actual career here is in the negatives. - the hours are long. there are no regulated breaks. you will lift heavy, frozen, poorly packaged items for 8+ hours a day. - you will only get a review if you ask for it or when they want to punish you.
