Pros

Good pay, enjoyed the exercise, gave senior citizens a chance too work, loved the management in outbound shipping.

Cons

Rate standards are absurd, no consideration given to obstacles (wrong box size, dunnage and tape machine constantly going down or being empty, pieces missing or wrong items in tote, add-on time not being recorded from start of problem to problem being solved). Drove nearly 3 hours a day getting back and forth on top of the 10 1/2 hours in the building. Two 15 minute breaks that weren't 15 minutes because it took 5 minutes to walk to and from your station.

Amazon bad job

Pros

Can not think of one reason to like this company

Cons

Jeff Bezos should pack in one of his "Fulfillment Centers" for about a month undercover to see just how bad the company is. Company does not care about employee retention. Turnover is at 55 %. Does that sound good to you?

Pros

Salary is ok, not the best for the work required, Benefits are great

Cons

Most work is tied to production rates. if you don't make rate , you loose your job, and they don't tell you that going in
