Pros

Higher average wages for material handlers, than in the local area. Four day work week, 10 hours per day. Overtime is available.

Cons

Cold!!! Refrigerated facility, freezer and cooler. Once you have proven you can do a job , you are pretty much stuck in that job, IE case pick. Unless you stress to your supervisor or management you want to learn more jobs. Supervisors that do not have people skills.

Pros

I have yet to find one.

Cons

Where to start? I worked at the Beaver Dam plant for the last 4 summers before it was bought out by Ryder. It was a place I definitely could have viewed myself working at for a long time. However, Ryder took over and the company absolutely sucks! They wanted to dock my pay from $12.50/hr to $8.00/hr my fourth year there. Really? You want me to have to work for $4.50 less per hour for working 3rd shift, 7 nights a week all summer? Yea, right. Also, I was laid off because your company STILL INSISTS on hiring inmates and when I was threatened by one he kept his job and I lost mine. I know the local papers would love a story like that.

Pros

Base salary was competitive with good benefits and perk options. Daily work schedule was routine but not boring and repetitious. Advanced training was avaliableand encouraged.

Cons

On-site human resources was a bit unorganized. Customer is not always right, routinely employees and mid-management had to jump through hoops to remove any responseability of recieved damaged goods. Exceeding expectations wasn't acknowledged enough yet certain bonuses were determined by company production.
