Pros

They are good at making you believe things will get better. Should be in politics!

Cons

Tell employees they're entitled to a bonus then make up an excuse to not give it. All the other warehouses have perks, this one does not. Give you a vacation and sick days and take them back. Make employees clean the bldg. And bathrooms. Safety issues. If you're great at brown nosing , they will keep you over people that actually work. High turnaround. Lots of nepotism. Good luck with getting a raise or anything your entitled to. Talk to the group like children while reminding everyone continuously they are replaceable and should be lucky to be there! All of this while making you work 6 days a week to barely make 40 hrs. If they don't like you they will nitpick until you quit. They can't keep anyone there . They truly don't care! What a waste of time.
