Pros
People think working for Coke is a prestigious occupation.
Cons
Half Time overtime. $115-$125/ day is good if you work 8 hrs a day ($14-$16/hr). You will NEVER get done in 8 hours. Instead, you’ll likely wear your body down pulling heavy pallets and lifting heavy cases for 12+hours ($9-$11). Still sound good? Well that rate of pay is only good for the first 40 hours. You get overtime! Oh yeah, the 20 hours of overtime you worked this week come in at a whopping $4.79-$5.21. It’s called half time over time and it should be illegal. How the labor dept hasn’t done a class action lawsuit against this company is beyond me! Here’s the real math. Day rate ($125) x number of days worked (5) = $625 this is your base salary. Divide base salary ($625) by number of hours worked (60) = $10.42 this is your hourly rate. For overtime pay you “halve” your hourly rate (10.42/2= $5.21). Your half time overtime rate is 5.21. You worked 20 hours of overtime at 5.21 per hour = $104.2. Add your base salary ($625) to your overtime pay ($104) and your pay for the week is $729. Not bad right? $12.15 an hour this week. This schedule has you at your first store before the sun comes up and leaving your last store before the sun goes down. And you are EXHAUSTED! This is a recipe for bad health and a very unhappy home life.
