Pros

There were very little employees at my location, so we all got to know eachother well. Kinda grew into a little family. The pay was amazing, and the taxes didn’t take too much out. It was an easy going job, learn stuff and repeat it.

Cons

Sometimes they would put a little on your shoulders, but they do it to help you progress in the job. You can tell them you aren’t ready and they will wait until you are. Otherwise, no cons.

Pros

There are some great, inspiring, and passionate people who work there, but none of them are in leadership positions.

Cons

Leaders aren't held accountable for KPIs or poor behavior. Decisions are made by forum/committee/council, so there is no clear ownership or guidance. The Service Office/HQ leaders look down on the store and fulfillment center teams, making decisions based on assumptions rather than taking time to understand the reality on the ground.
