Pros

Employee discount Flexible schedule Fun team

Cons

This is not the ideal company to build a career with. The expectations are too high for the pay they provide. Management training is a joke. They are unappreciative of the work you do. Very very cheap. Tell you to hire people, but give you no hours to schedule with. In interviews, people would laugh when I tell them their hourly pay rate. Good, fun job as a teenager working part time. NOT as an adult working full time with bills to pay. Save yourself the trouble and look elsewhere. This is not a place you want to work.

Pros

This job was neat. They did some fun things as a warehouse throughout the year. Busy work like I love.

Cons

It took about a year after I started wrapping pallets to sadly get arthritis in my neck from looking up at pallets taller than they were supposed to be.

Pros

Employee discount is 20% which comes in handy when you are forced to work 14 hour days and need a snack

Cons

Unrealistic expectations Company policy changes without rhyme or reason District manager only cares about how you will impress corporate when they come Not enough payroll hours to cover store and put out freight District manager plays favorites when giving out payroll hours and what policies you need to follow Managers consider employees expendable
