Pros

Relative good pay while in college. People are really fun to work with for the most part.\ Very flexible schedule making. The discount is okay but best when its increased for certain events.

Cons

Management. Practically useless and will lie to you and have blatant in your face favoritism. Upper management. Even more useless and will treat you like nothing if you don't stroke their ego if you want to get their recommendation for a promotion. Its very much a who you know kind of business and it unfortunately keeps college educated people away from moving up after spending YEARS working for the company but will promote the new brown noses with 1 year experience.

Pros

None. Get out while you can.

Cons

Houston location has the worst leaders. They're cheap with raises and cut the good people so the management team can get better bonuses. They make up rules that make no sense when they feel like. There are guys in the yard who have no job titles but somehow are still working there doing nothing all day? The safety leads/radio room/management are a joke. They cover up for the people they're buddies with. Ran into the gate? Destroy thousands of dollars of goods or a trailer? Ran out of gas in the middle of the road driving the mule offsite? Not a problem if you're buddies with management and safety. If you're buddies with management, you get opportunities offered to you even though you may be among the worst and slowest spotters. If you're not buddies with management/safety/radio, you have to watch your back. HEB corporate needs to look into management here.
