Pros

Money. But even then it's not worth what you go through. Most of your fellow low level employee's are good, fun to be around. With the exception of a few.

Cons

Your days can be long. You're not done til they tell you your done. And that's with 10hr days. Your schedule is designated totally by them. It's like working retail. "Didn't work tommorrow before? Look at the schedule now you're working". They employ on this "make your own paycheck" philosiphy. Which is you get X amount more an hour for every 5% over 100% efficency. Great. But 100% efficency with no errors, wrecks, or mistacked pallets is next to impossible, usually dangerous. Due to their "make your own paycheck" system, you have people taking speed, multiple energy shots in an hour much less a night. Alot of other selectors are unruly thug types you'd see on a street corner somewhere. You can end up threatened or at least called something not flattering, and usually they butt in front of you and pull product out of the same slot you need to, which slows you down. Once you're off your 8 weeks training. It's 100% efficency per week average or you're on your way out the door. Formal writeups. Doesn't matter if you're dog died or your wife left you, or you have the flu. If you have an workplace accident, and it was someone elses fault. Say they hit you with powered equipment. They make you say it was your fault at least partially to get them off of liability. Well not make. Definately tell you they think it was and you should think it was too. New trainee's are expected to follow safety rules and housekeeping while working @ 100% efficency, that employee's of multiple years don't and won't follow. People will steal your lunch out of the lunch room or at least go through it sometimes. Which btw the microwaves in the lunchroom are filthy. Try not to have to use them. Turnover is high. Out of a 200 person seasonal training maybe 4 people make it out of training and hired on full time. Which I think they do on purpose during the busy season to get cheap temporary labor. Overall it's a generally shitty place to work if you're an order selector.

Close enough to downtown to get lunch

Cons

blame culture, "shoot first, aim later" mentality, no training, constantly working over 50 hours a week, no promotions unless you are good friends with senior management

Pros

There are some very talented people involved with this company who can steer things in the right direction. Salary and benefits are very good.

Cons

Hierarchy- No oversight on what supervision is accomplishing. There are no shift managers and ops managers are busy with their tasks. Many negative behaviors fell through the cracks. Morale- Most employees come to work not because they want to but it is more a matter of survival. Perception from the employee view is that their needs are not being met and it is hard to energize and lead a workforce who hate their jobs. Culture- This is the area the company really needs to develop. Right now there is no shared vision.
