Pros

Easy job and Good benefits

Cons

Despite working from home, we are kept under intense scrutiny, and are required to inform them when we go to take a bathroom break, or if we have to go unavailable for any reason such as a package arriving or swapping out the laundry. As well as that, the two 15 minute breaks policy is applied to every single employee - even if they work in states that that isn’t legal in and are required more of a break. There’s also major pay discrepancies. Folks who have been working at goPuff for years are still making under $14 per hour, while new hires are being hired at $15+, the rate team leads are also paid, and then being let go not even a month later due to them not actually performing any tasks that they are required to do; such as putting themselves on mute and letting a customer speak to silence and never responding, or the digital, chat-based equivalent of that, to which we are all punished for by newer, stricter requirements being put into place. When anyone asks about a raise, they claim “HR is working on evening out the pay in the upcoming weeks.” And then they say it every time, for over 2 years. Management does not support us, nor do they look out for us. People are swapped between team leads and managers seemingly at random, so when you try to reach out to your team lead, they have to inform you that you have a new team lead. goPuff may be worth billions on the outside, but on the inside, the employees are paid peanuts in contrast to other customer service jobs.

Pros

Supportive Regional manager for sites

Cons

Lack of Accountability (Passing the Buck): Decision-making often lacks ownership, resulting in frustration and confusion when problems arise—issues are shifted rather than addressed. Unrealistic Expectations with Reduced Labor Budget: Increased performance expectations paired with significant cuts to labor budgets leave teams stretched thin and unable to meet demands effectively. High Turnover Among Operational Associates: The combination of workload pressure and no up-word movement leads to frequent employee departures at the associate level. Burnout Among Site Leaders: Site leaders are overwhelmed by the demands of managing intense workloads with insufficient staffing and appropriate labor hours support, has led to burnout and diminished morale. Insufficient Support Structures: There is a noticeable gap between what is expected of employees and the support (training, tools, manpower) provided to help them succeed. Reactive Rather Than Strategic Planning: Operational strategy often feels short-sighted, with decisions made on the fly rather than through proactive, long-term planning.
