Pros

Pay isn't bad for the region and for unskilled labor. Since the big buyout at the end of '12, they have proper benefits like 401k matching, health, etc.

Cons

Pay is OK, but it's capped, and there's no incentive to push past a certain minimum production level. Low level management doesn't get a great deal of oversight and they have be incredibly abusive, or incompetent. Holiday seasons crunch times; A la Retail. 60-80 hours mandatory (OT pay exists though) with constant physical labor. This means you are now a zombie when Christmas rolls around.

Pros

Exit interviews and self-evaluations from employees show a overwhelming acceptance of company policies and the support employees receive from managers.Over 40% of employees have been with the company over 5 years.

Cons

Is STP perfect? No. It appears the policy regarding customer's with abusive return habits has not been embraced by some. This is obviously and area the company can work to imporve.
