Pros

The job itself is a very simple task. Anyone who is willing to learn can do it with ease. You also gain vital experience working in a freight-like setting, which could be beneficial for future jobs. You also get paid weekly (may not be the same for your store!) The dress code is very lenient, so you can dress casually. Supervisors and Management are very open-minded to decisions

Cons

Hours can be and are EXTREMELY limited. You usually are only scheduled when a truck comes in, and even then you are NOT guaranteed hours. Trucks may not come in often. The management likes to add you to a schedule last minute, it can be highly inconvenient. There is heavy lifting involved. Hours can change at a moments notice You sometimes must work very early in the morning, or very late at night

Pros

Pay is very good once you start getting raises. Weekly pay

Cons

Genuinely everything else, the pay is that high because they have to pay you over 25 just to put up with the awful environment. terrible structure, terrible management, no accountability, cliquey mean girl environment. managers are allowed to sit around and do essentially nothing while supervisors carry 100% of the load and there is no checks and balances to ensure management does the right thing. Corporate and HR genuinely don't care if certain people sit on their butt While others keep the business running. Credit card pushing is absolutely Off the Wall insane. Getting enough credit cards is all the company cares about and managers do not help. Managers are allowed to have no history with getting any credit cards at all and corporate doesn't bat an eye. If you try to speak out about anything that's going on you'll just get fired. Retaliation is allowed and encouraged.
