Pros

Meet great people, have fun, eat good food, work with your schedule for the most part, can work a lot of hours if you want them

Cons

They don’t usually get rid of the bad people or reprimand them for not doing their job so it allow them to suck the life out of the good employees and the bad employees always seem like they r the ones that get treated the best especially if they r willing to work whenever and wherever. But if someone like me god forbid just isn’t feeling to good and don’t get a chance to cut up a tomato for the next shift bc I done 4 million other things nobody does , even things that r an every single shift thing but nothing will be said to them day after day after day but lucky me I get to do theirs and my job and nobody even bats an ueye but all I gotta do is breathe wrong

Pros

Solid pay for the industry Okay benefits Employee stock purchase plan Pretty consistent hours The actual work is difficult, but fun after you get good at it. Upward momentum is difficult, but the pay scales very well if you work your way up into management. Prepare for intense work if you do though.

Cons

They hire everyone, and your team will make or break your experience. Genuine safety concerns on 3rd shift. You need to be prepared for people to act out. Senior management only have operation management skills. They are not good "people" managers at all. Only "number" managers.
