    Pros

    Cross functional opportunities are abundant Room for growth Great role for newer leaders Benefits are amazing, 16 weeks maternity leave, healthcare for family etc. very progressive.

    Base Pay should be more competitive with “tech” pay industry since we brand ourselves as a tech company. Layers of leadership do not translate cross functionally for those who want to grow cross functionally Agent role needs major improvement regarding time off policy & attendance

    Great company to work for

    Mar 3, 2023 - Inventory Control Lead 
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    the 4 10 schedule really helps with having a personal life outside of work. The supervisors and leads are down to earth very easy to talk to when you have an issue or just to speak with overall. They have started training for leads and supervisors.

    Cons

    Lack of communication between departments and shifts. Lack of overtime opportunities. Point system is bad after 6 points you get fired it takes over 6 months to recover a point with no ability to have points removed with anything other than time. Does not seem like a job that will provide you with experience and knowledge to progress in your careers.
