Pros

Instant profit sharing helps yearly, since these amount of money a supervisor can make is fourteen dollars.

Cons

Insurance is terrible, atmosphere is terrible, and there is no true benefit to working for the company. There is no work life balance, the company expects you to be available at all times and does no value the idea of education.

Pros

Ips bonus and department head bonus are the only good things about this company

Cons

the hours are god awful! Here is an example, the DC trucks come at night and you don't leave till midnight. But you come back at 6am the next day. Is that even legal? No wonder they don't want the union in there. Those yearly seminars are a complete joke, boring and the same information year after year. Oh and wait for it, you have to share a room. Come on, are we adults? This is how you treat your employees that kill themselves for the company? Every where you look at the seminar people are falling asleep... Ummm they are exhausted from working 60 hour weeks. Has this company ever heard of employee appreciation? I think not!
