Pros

Fast-Paced and challenging work environment. Opportuninty to advance quickly if willing to relocate. Lots of opportunity for overtime.

Cons

The pay is hourly and low, they want you to work for bonuses. Upper management can be out of touch sometimes. Corporate will micro manage at every opportunity. Relocation is required for management trainees.

Pros

A few of the people are nice to work with.

Cons

A store manager who talks down to employees like they're children (and apparently gets promoted for it). A store manager who acts like employees are idiots for calling him to ask questions. Raises are pathetic. Understaffed because the store manager won't allow enough labor hours to do the job, particularly on Sundays when there's a lot of freight.
