Pros

You stay busy as there is a lot of work to do. Medical and dental benefits are decent.

Cons

This is by far the worst company I've ever seen. There is no gratitude for people putting in a lot of overtime as exempt employees. The unpaid overtime is making the company a lot of money but the attitude is you're never doing enough. No comp time, not even a thank you. Employees are spiteful towards each other to the point of being verbally abusive. They take micro management to the extreme. Some managers treat employees horribly. You get to work, sit down, don't talk to anyone, and put in your time. Depending on the department you work in you're not allowed to have conversations with people at your desks even if it's work related. It's a very depressing environment. There is no flexibility in your schedule. Even something as small as a 5 minute adjustment (come in 5 minutes early and leave 5 minutes early) to catch a bus isn't allowed. People are literally running down the stairs at the end of their shift. Work/life balance doesn't exist. At all. The dress code is outdated and fairly ridiculous when employees have no contact with customers or the public. You're required to dress like you work at Nordstrom but get paid a Walmart salary. The company owns all the parking lots in the area but you have to pay top dollar to get a spot.

Pros

Organized, benefits, easy to learn role and material after some time, and made friends

Cons

Weird, nonexistent culture (encouraged and established by management), benefits only available after certain amount of months (health 3, dental 6? if I remember and vision 12). Work from home offering is bait and switch as they are actively working towards fully eliminating it.
