Pros

It wasn't an overwhelmingly terrible place to work, but there also isn't a lot of positives. It's the kind of job you take, while you are waiting for a real opportunity to show itself somewhere else. Where you really just want to keep your head down and do your work until you can find a way out. Minimum starting is $10/hour, so that's pretty competitive for a warehouse job and people complaining about only getting 25 cent/ hour raises every six months, need to understand that is pretty competitive. 50 cents a year is much higher than the cost of living adjustment that most companies offer.

Cons

Like I stated in the "pros" category, this is just a job to get your through to the next step of your life. I don't see any real career opportunity, because of the rampant turnover of Team Leads, Supervisors, and Management. Really anyone and everyone in leadership tries their best to get out. Hard to view a place as having great career opportunity when leadership positions are leaving the company as fast as the can. They get to see behind the curtain and they don't like what they see. The biggest con has to be the turnover and the loss of actual good employees. I don't mean just base level workers, I mean management. I have never worked for a company that had so much turnover at the management level. I was there for over a year and in that time I watched every single department have a manager quit or be fired. Long-standing employees are very few and far between. It's mostly people leaving voluntarily that is the scary part. It would stand to reason that people in management positions should be relatively happy. They worked themselves into a position of leadership and are making better money than most, but they just aren't. That comes from their boss. He does not make for a very happy work environment and is often pretty inappropriate. I'm also not sure as to how they keep taking down the negative reviews on here. I understand that you never want to have your business look bad, but I thought this was a site that was supposed to show the good, bad, and the ugly. Not take down reviews because the company being reviewed calls or emails saying that all the bad reviews are coming from one person or they are being "trolled". I do know for a fact that there has been negative reviews taken off this site, that were there at one point. That was a big point of emphasis while I was with the company. Going on a "good reviews campaign" and just flat out asking employees to give 5 star reviews. I just don't think that is how you should be trying to fix a negative image online. From an employee's prospective, you feel a lot of pressure to do what they are asking. They are the one's signing the checks after all. Maybe actually attempt to fix what people are voicing concerns over and not trying to get them deleted like they never happened.

An interesting place to work

Pros

There is a lot of room to grow at PCLiquidations. With several departments you can easily find a place to belong. In the department I started at many tasks I performed were difficult and rewarding. In other departments you can choose simpler assignments. This is an 8-5 job with 2 paid 15 minute breaks and a lunch. You always have 40 hours and sometimes overtime after 90 days if you've proved yourself. They are also flexible with your schedule as needed.

Cons

They have a broken labor tracking system that assigns weights to items broadly. There is a certain amount of favoritism that exists in the workplace. Politics takes over when you reach a certain level. Limited benefits: subsidised healthcare only to most employees with a small bonus at year end. Supervisors and above accrue vacation time. Team leads and below do not.

Pros

There are only a couple of real pros here. There is flexible scheduling which is nice. There are some people there as well that are great to get along with.

Cons

There are no great benefits. The medical is not good at all, and that is all they give. There are some select FEW that get vacation time, however, it is not given to everyone. Management will make you uncomfortable, and can be extremely unprofessional. There is a very high turnover rate. They create new positions for "promotions", that are realistically just lateral moves. You are promised pay raises that just get capped within a short amount of time. I would only recommend this as a college job.

I want to thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback. Our goal as a company is to create a fun, comfortable, transparent and collaborative environment for all our employees so I’m disappointed and sorry that this was your experience. We truly value all feedback and we’ll continue to find ways to improve but I do want to address a couple of your specific concerns here. Benefits – Yes, our vacation and health benefits are limited. Four years ago we were a small company with less than 10 employees, today we are rapidly growing and have over 70 members on our team. During this amazing growth period we have had the opportunity to bring on some truly inspiring new employees with very bright future. March of this year (2016) we did roll out vacation packages for two additional organizational layers of employees which is something we were never able to offer in the past. We also rolled out an enterprise class payroll system which offers us greater flexibility in our ability to offer better benefits to our employees. Finally, we released revised health care packages that were improved over our previous plan and our goal is to reevaluate again in 2017 to include additional coverage such as vision and dental. Promotions – Yes, some new positions of opportunity will be a lateral move, others will be promotions. This is due to our rapid rate of growth, the current position of an interested employee and our need to structurally reorganize as a company to keep up with the ever growing demand of leading our constantly growing team. I know these modifications were not enough to ultimately satisfy your needs with us but we will continue to strive for improvement of our business both for our customers and our employees. I wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors and want to thank you again for this feedback. We truly intend to use it to help us grow professionally and to make a better work environment for our employees.
