Pros

The warehouse adopts a family mentality and ethos; being around fun and easygoing people makes the work feel satisfying and worthwhile for 8 hours of your day. Though the work is relaxed and repetitive, it can be challenging at times which keeps it engaging and allows you to sharpen your skill set. Best employee benefits package I have ever seen!

Cons

Upon initial hiring, you can feel as though you are expected to learn and keep up with the fast-paced work environment immediately. So, depending on your disposition, this may cause you to either feel under pressure or motivated towards job performance. My advice, patience is a virtue and don't be afraid to ask questions regarding the job. There can be a lot of miscommunication. It can sometimes get frustrating to coordinate the operations and logistics of the warehouse, especially with the front office, when the line of communication is broken. My advice, communicate often and clearly.

Pros

This company offers wonderful benefits. Above and beyond mere health insurance. There is a culture aspect which also inspires the employees to make a difference in their communities which is awesome.

Cons

The pay for this particular job is a poverty wage. It is not enough to support even two people, much less a family. Sure, with the benefits included in the pay, it could be considered more, but flat pay, w/o benefits, there is a struggle. Also, forget about time off. This is an answering service. We answer phones for businesses 24 hrs/day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. We are NEVER closed. You WILL work holidays. Including Christmas. You will NOT work a 9-5 M-F shift b/c in our world, that shift doesn't exist. So, expect nights, early mornings, and weekends to be working.

Pros

Decent pay, awesome co-workers, weekends off, management works with you if you need time off. Overtime available. Fair benefits.

Cons

No upward mobility. Too many lifers in management. Management not always on top of day to day operations. Obvious favoritism toward certain employees. Some safety issues not being addressed.
