Pros

I enjoyed the physical labor aspect of the job and the freedom to listen to whatever music you please was one of the few things that kept me sane in the workplace

Cons

Come to find out there's a policy that states you shouldn't talk about your pay I was being paid $15 an hour where as an employee who worked there for a few years more than us and was able to do three times to work than me and my coworker was able to do he was being paid 14.50 an hour needless to mention they're looking to screw over their employees and not pay people Fair wages there's no other reason this non-legally binding "policy" exists Furthermore there was an outbreak of Covid at the warehouse and when it happened they basically said "well we knew this was going to take place" they never tightened restrictions on making people wear masks (which a good few people didnt wear them at all) or did anything really sure enough two more people got covid the next week and I quit shortly thereafter they don't care about your well-being they don't care about your pay they don't care about YOU no matter how much they love to say they do stay far away from this place
