Pay is decent, you can pull money from your check whenever if you need too.

Cons

Not a lot of PTO given Work can get intense sometimes Need to have a certain amount of PTO in order to be considered for advanced roles.

Pros

Great pay, great advancement opportunities. Love that I had a long career with amazon and would of still been spending my years there for the right manager.

Cons

Bureaucracy to the extreme level. Especially if you are at a smaller site. At time it felts people focused more on feelings rather than merit. For a company that says they are metric driven it doesn't always show.

Pros

Decent pay and opportunity to get some useful certifications.

Cons

Horrible hours of 4 AM to 1 PM. When you try to bring up concerns about environmental issues that can potentially be a hazard, but aren’t in the metrics for what the company considers a “risk”, you are ignored. The on-boarding is unorganized and there is a unhealthy fixation on productivity metrics that limit any sort of out of the box thinking a good EHS specialist may want to do. Additionally, you will be pulled away from your job to help stow and pick packages, which is outside of your job description.
