Awful!

Pros

It's a job that pays some amount of money. That's the only positive I can think of.

Cons

Horrible company. You have to work every Friday b/c it's truck unloading day (even though they don't need everyone!). When I asked about possibly getting a Friday afternoon off occasionally so I could go to religious services (I'm Jewish), I was told that it wasn't even an option. This is the same company that is closed on Sundays to allow their employees time to worship. The owner respects and upholds HIS religious beliefs, just not anyone else's. They also keep everyone at PT status even if you work FT hours so they won't have to give you benefits and so they won't have to pay you the $14/hr rate that they advertise so prominently to get people to apply to work there. For a bunch of holier-than-thou Christians, they're pretty shady.
