Pros
-Decent and cheap health benefits, plus 401k, dental, etc. -Plenty of hours to work because they are always understaffed and will force you in so you can make $$$ -Great job if you were just released from prison, or have no friends, or social life, and nobody loves you. -paid weekly
Cons
-No work/life balance whatsoever, especially around holidays. When your family and friends are off work and having a good time, you will be working forced in overtime. -management is like talking to a brick wall, no empathy no intelligence -will force you to work overtime because management is incompetent at planning and staffing -people always quitting because working there is very physical and they are always forcing you to work extra hours beyond what you were sold coming coming on board -systems like the handhelds are 20+ years behind in technology. Windows as a mobile platform? Lol, why would a Fortune 44 company go this route? -HR policies are from the 1980's. They require a Doctor's note to get paid a sick day. How about just have them be personal days or paid days off? Nope, you have to have a doctor's note, so many people take the whole week, even though they only needed one day. -They have a productivity tracker that tracks every second you are on the clock and basically expects you to work like a machine would, for your entire shift of 10-12+ hours. -you will only ever get a small, less than cost of living raise every year of about 1%. It was 22 cents last year, woo-hoo, now I can afford that boat I have been dreaming of! -work there 20 years? Get paid the same as a new hire hired in today. Every warehouse employee is paid the same rate. Believe me, this is a con. Drive a forklift and take on additional safety risks? Doesn't matter, paid the same as an idiot picking PT on the line all day. -walking, standing, working on concrete floor all day is hard on your feet and joints. -incompetence at hiring and staffing has lead management to hire in some shady characters...who you will be working side-by-side with because they are having a difficult time hiring, due to the reputation of the environment of the workplace. For example, wasn't too long ago they hired a guy released from prison for sex crimes of soliciting an underaged minor who was actually a police officer posing as a 12 year old girl. This guy made several female employees nervous at the time, and was eventually fired because he threatened another employee's life. Good hiring decision? Frito Management thought so.
