Pros

you get paid, its a job that hires pretty much anyone and everyone.

Cons

just horrible. I loathed going to work everyday but needed a job. a job for when you are between jobs but that is it. management knows their is a high turnover rate and you can see it in the way they treat employees. Some of the supervisors even hired friends just so they could work with them on the best jobs/crews while other hard workers had to take what they could get. Very boring work, be ready for a lot of back/neck pain and the pay is not equal to the amount of work/physical activity bending and stooping and walking around stores the job requires.little to no training, they throw you on the floor of various jobs then you are expected to just ask questions/trained by other workers but depending on the job/worker you could get information from one person to be told it is totally wrong another day. Also a lot of payroll issues, they do not give out paystubs which is a big issue for anyone who gets foodstamps/has to report their work to a social services agency, their is at this moment a lawsuit against them by multiple employees for payroll reasons. Their motto is, if they can get away with it, then they will try!

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.
