Pros

Co-workers and employees are great, the job is varied and you are never bored. Fun products.

Cons

Payroll allotment does not change. Even if you exceed sales and get hundreds of extra cartons not accounted for in your freight budget you have to work with your original payroll. The hours management are expected to work are unrealistic and unsustainable. You are scheduled 9 hours but are typically there 12 or more and expected to come in on your off days.

Pros

My coworkers and a steady wpaycheck. And meeting some great people. The discount is nice.

Cons

This company likes to put all the work on its associates. Anything that’s grunt work or where you have to get your hands dirty. All they care about are pushing out those credit cards. I’ve seen some of the best employees quit because they’re burnt out and don’t get scheduled any hours. I don’t blame them. I’m looking for another job as I type this. My body hurts and I’m being abused physically and taken advantage of.
