Pros

Hard work can pay off and decent hourly wage if you are single. Work schedule worked well while going to college or having a second job. Opportunities to move up if you work hard and to get 29 hour weeks. Excellent communication with hub manager. Tuition reimbursement was a plus.

Cons

Managers treated workers like machines and yelled with informal language to employees. Not much respect was given. Had to approach higher or other management to discuss matters. Great starting pay, but at the time there was a cap in pay once 3 years was met. Workers who were there for 4 plus years were still getting same pay as someone who was there for 3 years. No full time benefits and really no advancement after 3 years unless you want to become a driver or supervisor.

Pros

Easy to apply, fast to get hired (no interview process) and the pay

Cons

Very rude management, lack of care for safety, no drinkable water (all filters are in the red and have been since I started) They have cameras everywhere and are constantly watching you but say you can’t bring your own phone in because “people steal them”? There is junk everywhere. Lots of trash everywhere (employees drinks and food). They want you to work and eat on the line instead of giving you breaks to do so. They get upset when you use the bathroom or fill your water bottle even if you’ve been working for 3 hours straight but if you clock in at an area 2 min walking distance from your work area you’re “stealing time” I’ve noticed people of color get treated differently. The HR department has some of the most prejudice employees so there’s no real equality if you have conflict with someone. I’ve never been, but it feels like a prison to go in and out of the building and lastly you don’t work a consistent schedule. You leave when they say you can.
