Pros

The benefits are pretty decent

Cons

You work your tail off for the company for very little pay. It is not a livable wage, unless you are happy in a crap vehicle and crap home. You will never advance to a higher living. There is no way to afford a decent home and a decent vehicle. Hercules will push the employee owned stock down your throat though. Saying things like, "Look how much your stock is worth just one year in"! .... Okay, so you want me to live my best life when I retire and have a few more years on this earth!?! I think not. When everyone at a higher level than warehouse and sales desk is living a decent life and driving the company vehicles at this is called "Employee Ownership". Managers are rude and treat warehouse like garbage. They speak ill about drivers and warehouse employees behind their back. They show up whenever they feel like it and leave earlier then most of their employees. No matter how swamped warehouse is loading trucks. We are understaffed, under appreciated and under paid. A Walmart grocery loader makes the same hourly with very little labor. We work so very hard to live paycheck to paycheck. Currently looking for new employment.

Pros

The work is easy, you usually tend to get into a rhythm day to day.

Cons

The workplace was filled with gossip and rumors, creating an extremely toxic environment. Instead of fostering teamwork and professionalism, many employees—including those in leadership—engaged in spreading misinformation about their colleague. As if that weren't bad enough there is also a huge amount of favoritism and racism in the workplace. One of our tasks was to help out the delivery drivers by tagging along with them on their runs. While you would imagine that would be straight forward it was anything but, in my experience as a person of Mexican origin I, along with two other coworkers of hispanic origin would be paired with the only driver who was Latino. While the only Caucasian member of our department would be able to stay back. While this would lower morale, keep in mind that including myself 4 out 5 members of the Warehouse Worker department exceeded the experience of the Caucasian employee but within a span of 4 months he was promoted. Not to mention was also the nephew of our Supervisor. In due time this job to provide assistance to the delivery drivers while being framed to be a responsibility of the whole department was soon only assigned to myself and another coworker.
