Pros

Really easy job as long as you are a good counter then you keep your job. The company van provides us a ride to work so you don't actually drive to the different stores yourself. depending on where the store is you'll be paid travel time after the 1st hour of the trip.

Cons

Work fast & accurately or supervisors will have to get on you about it especially if it happens a lot. The constant moving, bending, twisting, lifting will cause problems to your knees & back. Invest in a 1" thick kneeling pad & a back brace. Do NOT hurt yourself to provide accuracy for them, remember to look out for yourself because they will not. PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR HOURS! They will skim a little off for their benefit UNLESS you call them out. The federal, state, Medicare, &whatever other taxes coming out of your weekly check is unusually high for this company

WIS strives for excellence and accuracy. Our customers deserve that level of customer service. We do our best to train all Inventory associates so they have the building blocks to become fast and accurate counters. Our intranet provides a tremendous amount of video learning tools so employees can enhance their skills. As with most employers, we work with our employees to provide optimal hours based upon their skill level. WIS abides by every wage and hour law and makes every effort to pay for all hours worked. WIS even instituted a program that summarizes hours worked each week and submits this for the review of every employee. We take this step to ensure that each employee's pay is as accurate as possible.

Pros

WIS is such a big company with a variety of roles, there's so many ways to find what fits "you." Opportunities for growth. I personally have like all of my management team, always nice and listened to their employees. When I was an inventory supervisor, I loved the traveling and experiencing new places. Higher pay than minimum wage, and typically higher than what most places offer.

Cons

Depending on the position, hours can be on the longer side. (but this can also be seen as a good thing.) Early starting times. Certain positions sometimes have a high turnover rate. While there are a lot of possibilities for growth, sometimes it can be a little difficult.

Pros

Nothing about this job had pro's.

Cons

Terrible Management. Was aware that their top performing employee was harassing many young girls (including myself) in a very explicit way and knew of this issue and did not resolve anything. The shifts are not long due ot everyone trying to count as fast as they can due to higher pay if you do count faster, but it comes with a cost. The schedules are never consistent, and you can wish your sleep schedule goodbye. You will also be using a lot of gas for this job and will sometimes have a total drive time of 4 hours and only work 2. Awful.
