Pros

The company does well on time off requests and flexible schedules and being mindful on that we are all human and are late and have other things going on besides work

Cons

I worked for the Company for 4 Years and when it’s time for them to choose who to promote they are so blind. When promoting a key carrier they had 2 great choices and 1 bad and they chose the bad. This person constantly had complaints against them by associates and customers the only reason they were promoted was people they had so many credit cards. Also each store is different and I worked at the store with the biggest stock room in the area and they stuff product in by the maxx. They company is only worried about selling product and not taking into consideration just how small each store is my store towards the end was receiving so much freight that we were putting boxes and boxes on the floor and not to mention we do not have enough things to bring them out on and is a lifting hazard for the employees

Pros

Good pay and flexible hours

Cons

The workplace culture felt highly driven by informalities, which often made it difficult to resolve issues professionally. Management responses to workplace concerns often felt inconsistent, and similar incidents appeared to be handled differently depending on the individuals involved. Employee morale appeared low, and turnover seemed higher than expected during my time there. Lack of support during peak periods and backroom inefficiencies. The work environment felt unsustainable due to unresolved management issues, communication breakdowns, and inconsistent handling of workplace conflicts.
