Pros

Decent pay to start, but you'll have to leave the company to get a fair offer for subsequent moves up.

Cons

This company does the bare minimum for its people but expects 110% in return, 24/7. Runs on a skeleton crew with nonexistent resources for employees. Overtime, weekends, emails at all hours of the day. Disorganized processes, no training, constant reorgs. "It Can Be Done" motto is used to try and make toxic environment feel like you're working toward something important...but at the end of the day the only thing to show for giving up your entire personal life is a 2% raise that doesn't even cover cost of living increase, while the CEO gets a $24M bonus.

Pros

good work value and environment friendly

Cons

The manager would call my phone at 3 am to tell me to unload a truck full of drinks alone, constantly, even though it was never mentioned or docked as pay.

Pros

Pay, Schedule Flexibility and Local Teams - That is where the pro's stop

Cons

Upper Management don't seem to have a clue! They do cuts throughout the company every 2 to 3 years just to hire back/hire new people into roles they eliminated 6 months earlier. They say they value people and their concerns but the majority of workers say nothing about the toxic work environment created by Zone Leaders and above in fear of being singled out. They create positions that don't add value to the field and add more and more work onto field staff. Size of areas continually change - first its 10, then 12, then 16, back to 12 and back to 14+ stores. No consistency in there direction, they train you to manage the whirlwind but the problem is...... they create the whirlwind! Upper Management is a do as I say, no questions asked
