Pros

Worked with a lot of really good people. Many employees with many years of experience who know the business. Also, had some flexibility with my schedule.

Cons

The company has been going through a lot of changes over the years and faced financial challenges. Time will tell if it will be able to survive these challenges, along with the growth in competition. Over the years, lay offs have taken their toll causing uncertainty for remaining employees.

Pros

Great training if you work in the warehouse as a selector.

Cons

Don't go into management there. No training provided and when you start to fail they reprimand without training to fix what isn't working.
