Pros

Benefits early, some good people

Cons

Sexist environment, not the best for females. Hard workers are taken advantage of rather then valued, lots of low hanging fruit hanging on for years and just "showing up" for work to collect that check takes a toll on the people with good work ethics. Passive aggressive management style, low quality managers, most upper managers show up to go out to lunch, company protects the company despite the whole "integrity" being important, it isn't unless you are a peon - different standards for different levels of company. Low yearly raises, pkg handlers got better raises. Negotiate your salary/rate high coming in the door because it won't change much after that despite the company profits. Broken down equipment affects mid level workers - company saves money not replacing with up to date technology and you tow the line. Lots of gossip and backstabbing, isn't addressed as it should be. Managers are clueless what support does on a daily basis. If you speak out you get punished and have to endure hostile work environment until you make your escape. If you are targeted it is just a matter of time until you are forced to leave is not a good management style to strive for. Speaking out with HR during yearly feedback sessions is not confidential and comes back to haunt you even though you had good intentions for improving the company. Open door policy is a complete joke.

Pros

Great flexibility with scheduling, which makes it incredibly easy to balance with school or other external commitments. The team environment is supportive, and the management generally respects your availability

Cons

The physical workload can be quite demanding and tiring, especially during peak seasons. Depending on the shift, communication across different teams can sometimes feel a bit unorganized.

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.
