Pros

Health, dental, vision, 401k, PTO, tuition reimbursement for PT workers Easy to pick up additional shifts Being outdoors when the weather is nice

Cons

Shifts are short and either early morning or late at night Overbearing team leads who lead by passive aggressive tactics, and yelling Pay is based on title rather than amount of training you have done Too many safety rules, which I believe lead to a safety concern in itself Peak season (thanksgiving to Christmas) is pure hell. Many quit during this time or right after Many lazy workers which makes those that do a good job have additional work and stress They talk about advancement opportunities all the time, but these are rare and FT positions are even rarer

Pros

Easy to apply, fast to get hired (no interview process) and the pay

Cons

Very rude management, lack of care for safety, no drinkable water (all filters are in the red and have been since I started) They have cameras everywhere and are constantly watching you but say you can’t bring your own phone in because “people steal them”? There is junk everywhere. Lots of trash everywhere (employees drinks and food). They want you to work and eat on the line instead of giving you breaks to do so. They get upset when you use the bathroom or fill your water bottle even if you’ve been working for 3 hours straight but if you clock in at an area 2 min walking distance from your work area you’re “stealing time” I’ve noticed people of color get treated differently. The HR department has some of the most prejudice employees so there’s no real equality if you have conflict with someone. I’ve never been, but it feels like a prison to go in and out of the building and lastly you don’t work a consistent schedule. You leave when they say you can.
