Pros

At the very most it's a job. At the very least, it got me out of the house and the employee discount was okay.

Cons

Hired me to be a commercial delivery driver and made me sell retail. I was paid to do a sales persons job without the benefits or pay. Managers are only there for themselves.

Office culture is a concern

Pros

Cubicle space and privacy is great. This allows for direct focus and concentration on daily job tasks and responsibilities. Compensation and benefits are decent. Food service, cafeteria, and break rooms are excellent.

Cons

Training is not thorough and unprofessional behavior is allowed for specific people. I and other co-workers witness a manager verbally assault, bully and threaten an employee. The intimidation kept everyone silent. Being a new-hire with zero rapport I had no choice but to resign days afterwards, because that behavior is unacceptable to me.
