Pros

Good Exercise. The pay is above minimum wage and overtime starts after 5 hours. After a year, part-time employees are eligible for health insurance.

Cons

Dangerous! The place is an OSHA nightmare. Supervisors are constantly yelling to work faster but do little to assist or actually supervise. To handle the work load and keep up with expectations, you are required to cut corners. Safety is an afterthought. Injuries and near misses are under-reported and a lot is done to discourage any worker's comp complaints. The work is rough and wears on you. Unloaders are expected to move packages weighing from 1-70 pounds at a rate of 1200 packagers per hour. if you can do lifts and squats continuously for 4-5 hours, then this is the job for you.

Pros

Salary/benefits are good. There are some great people to work with here. Company has a long history and thus is expected to be around for quite some time.

Cons

Hours 60 per week gauranteed. Production goals have gotten overly aggressive in the past few years. The company has become reactive instead of proactive

Pros

Part time - great if working preload and going to college. Helps as a second job too. Benefits are great even for just part time employees.

Cons

If dealing with anything related with handling packages, it's very labor intensive. Sometime long hours if full time. Management works 50 hrs + and sometimes 6 days a week.
