Pros

Plenty of overtime during peak season

Cons

They tell you that if you work hard you will be hired at the end of the season but in reality the people who were great at their jobs(i packed over 1000 packages a day) did not recieve a job offer. In fact the employees who did the bare minimum around 465 package, who walked away from thier stations for 30 minutes at a time and supervisors knew about it, would often find supervisors talking to lesser skilled employees instead of asking them to do thier jobs recieved job offers. No employee that went above and beyond production recieved an offer...only the ones who I'm assuming they wouldn't have to promotw in the future recieved jobs. My advice to future employees is to juat do whatever you want, barely make production and you will definitely get hired. If you do the job to your best ability I can almost guarantee you will NOT get the job.

Pros

Good time-off package. Holiday week off for office employees. Historically respected work-life balance and flexible working. Good employee discount and maternity leave.

Cons

C-suite pushing a mandatory 3 days in-office after 5+ years of boasting flexibility as a cornerstone of their employee benefits package. Lack of clear and thoughtful communication of this new policy was frustrating and disheartening as an employee. Leadership, starting with the CEO, is at an all-time low of the last 6 years of working in their corporate office. Horrifying to see how poorly initiatives are getting rolled out, likely getting pushed down from board of directors. Would anticipate a rough transition into the company if you choose to take a role replacing the dozens of employees possibly being forced to leave the company due to RTO.
