Pros

Can come in late and not be introuble as long as you called in Laid back line & sort managers Career Advancements Move up's Hard work reconized Paid time off Good first job

Cons

Corporate managers talk down to you & talk trash to you for every little thing or just to nit pick you just cause. Very low pay for what is expected. If your a loader they'll flood the belt with boxes just to get you out faster, meaning if your in the unload they are really pushing you and your body to get all of those boxes out of the trailer that quick. They're people who steal and don't do their job at all, but they'll treat the people who come in everyday and do their jobs like trash and slaves Corporate Managers and Line Managers are to busy flirting with the girls at work more then helping out or doing their jobs, even though their is a no date policy between managers and regular workers but it doesn't stop them from trying or succeeding. Not enough hours at all, did you know management get's a bonus for getting us out early, they even use to go without giving us breaks and force us to say yes for breaks even though we never got them, just to get us out early. They say they get you insurance, never got it. Expects too much from you. Most new workers come in see their first checks and never come back. To far out so if your car breaks down, you might as well quit. If your a loader you get blamed for everything, instead of corporate managers talking to the contractors about the heavy loads. Sometimes ops managers are completly disorganized, and make our jobs harders Drivers might start stuff with you & a higher up manager will take their sides, then the worker who does all the hard work. Causes high stress levels for yourself & your body.

Pros

One of the benefits they list to get you in the door is TOP RATE pay*. The top rate is currently unknown but general consensus is 20 years to top rate pay. If you love standing around making up stories in your own head for two hours while spreading rumors amongst your unabashed co-workers about other co-workers you’ve interacted 2 minutes in the year you’ve worked together then this job is for you! Minimal logic involved.

Cons

Fellow employees will unionize to get you out of your route. Employees will make up stories to pit employees against one another. Fellow employees will threaten other employees for being friendly to one another. The management is willing bend over backwards to give you a bad review if leaving for another job. Co-workers are extremely bored and in most cases workload differs dramatically depending on where you are on the sort.
