Pros

Lots of overtime. They will let you work as much as you want.

Cons

Mandatory 10 hour days year around. Only one 30 minute unpaid break. Old equipment many of the the forklifts are over 15 years old with over 10,000 hours on them. As of this review all the forklifts were open cabs all the work is done outside. management keeps saying new forklifts are comping this has been going on for 3 months now. Ever manger is ethier incompetent or a treats anyone below them with no respect. The yard staff and drivers are second class citizen compared to the sales staff.
