Pros
The pros to this job include working with great people, (when you actually get a team to work with). The pay is ok, but once you "cap out," you can't go higher. Weekly paychecks are a plus and you also learn new skills. (E.G. I learned how to drive / operate a forklift, and I got pretty good at it!)
Cons
Cons to this job, unfortunately, outweigh the pros. First off, the schedule DOES NOT BUDGE in this position! Your schedule is 6am - 2pm on the days you work period. There is NO flexibility. For this reason, it is difficult finding childcare as no childcare facility opens before 6am for dropoffs and they are closed on the weekends. This job requires you to work at least one day out of the weekend, adding to the problem of finding childcare. Secondly, the amount of work you are required to do in a day is just outrageous for one person. For example, when you have a truck come that day, you are required to put everything away, (often working by yourself), PLUS make sure pricing is correct, product is not out of date, merch is set correctly, drive aisle is filled and all product is present, (no empty holes on the shelf). This can be very difficult when your truckloads are big. Overall, this job is very taxing, physically and mentally, for as little as they pay you. They are definitely NOT single mom friendly!
