Pros
Most of the pros are under the umbrella of just gaining more experience. You gain experience as far as machinery, learning how to deal with people, learning and taking advice from people you work with, and overall it's a good social setting. There's a lot of great people in the company throughout the branches. Most workers that come to the warehouse are already familiar with warehouse work/hard labor. For young guys it's a learning experience while already having none.
Cons
It's hard having the same crew for more than 6 months sometimes 90 days because people get stressed out or leave because they don't feel like a valued worker and some just don't work out. If you're working in the warehouse, don't expect a raise every year, a lot of overtime, and bonuses. If your here for some years maybe you'll get a couple of raises. That's only if you step up to another position or are an all-around worker. But if you're just complacent with one position and you don't want to cross train other positions you might get a raise once a year. But the higher ups aren't too big on the warehouse. It's pretty straight forward come in do your job dont complain and go home. You're almost a face in the crowd/replaceable. Warehouse Manager, Receiving, dispatch, and inventory specialist are the top/most stressful positions in the warehouse. Depending on your personal situation, the top positions might be okay for you financially. Some feel like the stress isn't worth the money. Transfers/order picking and put away are the lowest/easiest positions in the warehouse.
