Pros

Better than being unemployed.....i guess.

Cons

Its easy to see that HR likes to come on here and write fake positive reviews.....just look at the 3 or 4 most recent ones and how professionally they are worded. Not that the people that work here are incapable of writing well, but what a joke if they think those can pass for actual company employee reviews. But I'll get to the point...what an absolutely horrible company to work for. The benefits are a laughable, the pay is laughable, and if you think this company will ever appreciate any hard work you put it.... you will be very disappointed. Your hard work will never pay off, no one will ever care or tell you thank you if you do a great or put any extra effort into anything. They have incompetent people in management positions that I can only assume keep their jobs because they refuse to quit, and they hate firing people because they do not want to cough up the money to help pay for unemployment. Its funny, too because HR conducts exit interviews, and I have known several people who have actually detailed to them why they quit, why people continue to quit, and nothing ever changes, so I'm not sure why they are wasting time on giving the interviews in the first place. If you are a young professional starting out and can suffer through a year here to gain experience, do so, and take your new skills elsewhere so you can be adequately compensated and appreciated for your efforts.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. As a company, we are always looking to improve, and we can only do so when employees provide detailed, concrete content that we can examine and work on (which is one of the reasons we provide exit interviews). These are frequently analyzed to effect positive change - which happens frequently. We want you to know that HR cannot write reviews - any reviews you see here are from actual employees. And yes, they are well written, because our employees are bright, talented individuals. We are sorry that you were unhappy here, and hope that you have found a better fit in your new role.

Pros

Paid every week on Friday’s

Cons

I’ve been here a few years. Its overall depressing and uncaring. Unnecessary layoffs and endless terminations with below standard severence being offered. Others quit because they can’t take it anymore. I hate coming here every day. No One adheres to protective measures and everyone just pretends this is ok and the covid virus isn’t real. Employees are stressed and fearful at an unhealthy level. I have been applying to other jobs but it is hard to find work right now. I had another offer when I accepted this one and regret my choice. I was warned but Didn’t listen. Benefits are expensive like the reviews say and I don’t want to be here for the 8 years it takes to get 3weeks of vacation when that is a standard starting point at other companies. We are paid weekly but no direct deposit Everyone hates hr except for the koolaid drinkers. They are the only ones not losing their job. Nothing professional about this organization except for the dress code which no one but hr follows anyway. The positive reviews are definitely fake I know this for a fact.

Pros

Paid weekly. Good hourly team for the most part. I enjoyed most of the people that worked for me.

Cons

Horrible (bully like mentality) upper management. Very poor training for new managers at the terminal level. No support for managers at the terminal level. Very outdated equipment. Not enough equipment, forklifts included. Nasty facilities. Very long hours. 6-7 day work weeks are very possible. Did I mention horrible upper management?
