Pros

There aren't many. Money was OK but not as good as they try to sell you on. I had a close knit team so that was nice.

Cons

They always expect more for less. You work grueling hours. They put every mistake on you even if you had no control of it. They love fining you to lower you pay. Bonuses are constantly decreasing. They are always creating reasons to fire people and then force you to do the dirty work even if you don't agree with them. They encourage micromanagement and they force you to relocate, multi state often times, with no regards of your home or family life. This is honestly one of the worst companies a person could work for in all of America.

Pros

A few of the people are nice to work with.

Cons

A store manager who talks down to employees like they're children (and apparently gets promoted for it). A store manager who acts like employees are idiots for calling him to ask questions. Raises are pathetic. Understaffed because the store manager won't allow enough labor hours to do the job, particularly on Sundays when there's a lot of freight.
