Pros

Good pay, great benefits, stock options, 401k

Cons

Some management can be very horrible to work for. A lot of management is young kids straight out of college and don't know anything about discipline, how to control a numerous about of people. Management doesn't respect the hourly warehouse employees much. No real chance of moving up of being promoted. Job could be hard on the body physically and mentally.

Pros

A fair rate of pay at a fast, consistent pace for the work being done. There is also a lot of room for learning new roles and moving up if you have a manager that will help promote those skills. The tuition system in place is also amazing and allows associates to grow outside of the company.

Cons

There are too many managers per area and there is a massive disconnect when it comes to communication between them. In addition, despite the fact that there 'are no favorites', there are clearly favorites and there is a hidden political system in place in which favorites are chosen and guided towards promotion. There are also issues with management involving being 'too valuable' where an associate can be denied a promotion simply because there is too much need for that associate on a shift which causes a dissonance in morale and trust.
