Pros

Scheduling was somewhat flexible, and work was pretty easy.

Cons

Where do I start? I worked at this job for 3 months. Upper management constantly micromanaged my team lead and our own work. - Constant turnover; the people who I worked with on the team were barely capable of the easiest of assignments on the job. Many coworkers would actually leave randomly during the workday and not come back.There was no disciplinary process that was ever used to keep this from happening. The travel - some days it was only 15 minutes commute one way. Other days it was 50 minutes each way. The mileage compensation system for SAS is poor: only after 30 minutes or 30 miles of driving do you get compensated 15 cents a mile plus hourly wage. This is barely enough to make up for gas money, not even including the additional wear and tear on your vehicle. The trainer in my service area didn't even train us! They showed up, talked with us for about half an hour, then left. The pay is poor, and I was informed that raises in reality do not exist for this position. You don't enter in your own hours, or even get to view them until your get your paycheck - super shady. If you happen to be in an area where there isn't much work, then you won't be able to get 40 hours a week with this job.

Pros

• You work Mon-Thurs. Weekends are always free • You’re entitled to two breaks, a 30 minute unpaid break and a 15 minute paid break.

Cons

• This job will destroy your body. Lifting, kneeling, squatting all day for minimum wage is not sustainable. Nobody should have to work so hard for breadcrumbs in return. • Management will try to rush you to get the project done, which increases your risk of injury and products falling/breaking open • The hours are vary wildly depending on the project assigned. Sometimes you work 4-5 hours, sometimes closer to 9-10. Don’t bother making an appointment on your work day, because you probably won’t make it • Gas reimbursement is a joke, about a couple of dollars, and will not cover the full expense of your travel • Step stools can be hard to come by. You may have to stand on a milk crate. Cross your fingers that it doesn’t break
