Pros
Interesting night time work scanning goods that you may not have ever seen before. Friendships and intelligent people to work with. No need to drive to locations because Van travel supplied.
Cons
First hour (traveling to location) and First hour (traveling from location) is UNPAID. Reason: "We provide the gas and driver, so you don't have to worry about your car, etc.") Travel after first hour is paid at minimum wage. Waiting time before and after counting - first 45 mins of wait time - UNPAID. Thereafter, wait time paid at minimum wage. Counting time is often not correctly reported. CHECK YOUR SCHEDULE and QUESTION hours that are incorrect!!! Scheduling is haphazard, often changing daily. Workers advised to check schedule twice daily on company website. Impossible to tell if you will be committing yourself to 6 hours or 15 hours of counting, due to the fact that only half of employees scheduled to work actually show up. computer systems used to tally counts are outdated, slow, and cumbersome. Lack of ladders on jobs, occasionally leading to "borrowing' of store ladders. Break times not structured. managers often pushing employees to scan just a few more items" hoping that they will continue to work without breaks. IF YOU NEED A BREAK AFTER 6 HOURS OF COUNTING, INFORM YOUR MANAGER, AND THEN TAKE YOUR BREAK AS PER THE LAW IN YOUR STATE. DO NOT ALLOW THEM TO KEEP YOU FROM WHAT IS FEDERALLY MANDATED. IF YOU ONLY TAKE A 5-15 MINUTE BREAK< IT IS TO BE PAID FOR!
