Pros

Depending on where you live the starting pay could be decent. Benefits for part-time is nice but the insurance is bs you’ll be paying out of pocket for everything but preventative care. That’s literally it.

Cons

Unprofessional management Complete lack of integrity in management and some co-workers Rampant favoritism Constantly changing schedules Non-existent work/life balance Outdated technology Old trucks that are in a state of constant disrepair. Daily breakdowns sometimes multiple trucks a day. Constant changing of benefits- ex. They recently took away the minimum hours benefit. So if your part time you’d be guaranteed 17 hours even if you worked less and 35 hours for full time. This was the only reason besides health insurance that one of our workers got this job, they had no problem pulling the rug out from under him. Our senior manager acted like a child whenever an employee had constructive criticism, how can someone that ignorant be put in that position? Way to go fx They can and will change the raise system whenever they feel including not even giving you one. I could go on for about 10 more paragraphs about how much poorly this company is run but I’ll save us both some time. The recent changes in corporate tax saved the company billions they gave us a raise 6 months early, that’s it. Their people service profit philosophy is a complete joke to the frontline employees. Their is only one word that sums up their policies PROFIT. The don’t care about their employees, they care how much money the can make off your blood and sweat. Worst job I’ve ever had good luck to people just starting out.

Pros

Great flexibility with scheduling, which makes it incredibly easy to balance with school or other external commitments. The team environment is supportive, and the management generally respects your availability

Cons

The physical workload can be quite demanding and tiring, especially during peak seasons. Depending on the shift, communication across different teams can sometimes feel a bit unorganized.

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.
