Pros

The only pro I would give is that it's a job with good pay. Plus majority of my co-workers were really nice nad helpful. My supervisors were really awesome and caring. Other then that please see my cons about the Gap Distribution Center in Fishkill, NY.

Cons

First off upper management sucks BIG TIME. There would be time's when the line was not moving for a period of time and if the stuff that the stores needed didn't get out on the trucks for delivery on time then they literally yell at everyone about it but meanwhile it was nobody's fault that maintenance takes forever to fix the line. Oh yeah you literally have no life and work balance at all. They have manadtory overtime which means they make work either one extra hour or 2 hours of overtime and during the holidays you get scheduled to work 6 day's with only one day off. If your even one minute late to work you get docked a half of day but meanwhile upper management can come and go as they please. The only time when you'll see upper management out on the floor is when somebody from San Francisco (Corporate) is paying a visit other then that upper management sets on there buts all day long in there office. You do work with some fake people and two face people who act like they know it all. The only time they'll close there Fishkill, NY distribution center is if Fishkill is in a state of emergency. I'm sorry but no job is worth risking my life if the weather is bad.

Pros

The only pro to working this job is the discount at all of the Gap inc brands.

Cons

The pay for this job is way too low, you can barely by the clothes. Management is often rude and doesn't care They apply intense pressure on you to open up cards and reward you with absolutely nothing. The Managers are rude!

Pros

Benefits are amazing and the culture is great! I've never been at a company where there's been so many employees that have been there for more than five years it's an anomaly

Cons

If you are in HR professional this is not the place for you.I just joined five months ago and I'm already on my way out the door they go through HR people like dirty socks this is not a place I would suggest for HR practitioners a lot of talk about change but no action on what they preach the same tenured people get promoted into executive leadership spots and have no idea how to involve or drive change!
