Terrible Establishment, Overrated Staff
Pros
Met a few cool managers and employees
Cons
You might get a job in the warehouse, but don't expect to fit in with the office crowd. I was literally at this place for less than 48 hours, not because I was a DEI token, but because I was the skilled person they needed in their office department, and they had a hard time accepting that. From day one, they did things to distinguish me from other office staff, down to the shirts we were required to wear. I wasnt worried about that though because my feelings are never invested in these companies, its business. I was supposed to be there to do a high-level job, but the O'Reilly leadership was invested and worried about lesser. I was fired primarily because the manager of the center and his crony, who couldn't even tie his shoes, were a little pressed that I, a capable brother, was working around their mid-office rep. She had a ton of awards despite not doing anything exceptional, especially in terms of retention of talent. Her lack of understanding of basic recruiting, networking, and onboarding was evident. It didn't help that she was closed-minded and out of touch with the staff. But considering how they hyped her up, it was to be expected. The building had a ton of safety, retention, training, and employee relation issues. Yet, this girl, who was junior and average at best, had all these awards and accolades but didn't know much. Like many others, she lacked effective problem-solving skills and didn't work well with others (two people before me just quit). What happened to me was a waste of my time.
