Pros

Just the free coffee and food

Cons

In the advanced packing facility they have horrible working conditions that include tasks that leave you in very uncomfortable positions for up to 8 hrs. This is a very corporate company so they have begun to care very little about their employees and more about how much they are grossing. I've also experienced sexism here with leads speaking to me as if I'm dumb and seeing my fellow female coworkers getting treated differently than the males. The retention rate here is also extremely low. In the short time I was there I saw two people get fired and countless people quit. Managment is lazy and do not care about the well being of the people they manage.
