Pros

*Ok pay (it should be more for they type of work in my opinion) *They hire from the inside so if you want to move up the ranks it is very possible. Most of the people working here in the manager positions started out as package handlers. It doesnt take too long either. *Benefits of all kinds. *You can change your position if you dont like it or would like to try something else.

Cons

*No lunch break or breaks. You can get water and use the restroom but thats about it. (For a job that is labor intensive and burning through a lot of calories as this one you would imagine a break to be mandatory, but sadly it isnt) *Your expected to check your schedule every day multiple times a day because they change them on you without notice sometimes only a few hours before your shift. Throughout the week your scheduled time can change multiple times too. This is stressful. *Your not allowed to bring in anything metal so no redbuls or energy drinks but they do allow you to purchase them from the store inside and of course its at a higher cost. This includes your cell phone. *Security is ridiculous, think airport rediculous and thats just to get in the building. On your way out of the building they will randomly choose people who have to get the security to check for any metal again with a wand. (People steal phones) still ridiculous. Feels like I work at a prison.

Pros

Easy to apply, fast to get hired (no interview process) and the pay

Cons

Very rude management, lack of care for safety, no drinkable water (all filters are in the red and have been since I started) They have cameras everywhere and are constantly watching you but say you can’t bring your own phone in because “people steal them”? There is junk everywhere. Lots of trash everywhere (employees drinks and food). They want you to work and eat on the line instead of giving you breaks to do so. They get upset when you use the bathroom or fill your water bottle even if you’ve been working for 3 hours straight but if you clock in at an area 2 min walking distance from your work area you’re “stealing time” I’ve noticed people of color get treated differently. The HR department has some of the most prejudice employees so there’s no real equality if you have conflict with someone. I’ve never been, but it feels like a prison to go in and out of the building and lastly you don’t work a consistent schedule. You leave when they say you can.
