Great at the start but you’re going to realize why the turnover rate is high asf

Pros

Money is great but only if you get your hours. Their unrealistic metrics for picking has people cheating the system by typing in the location before you get there, dangling from racks to grab a product, mispicking, grabbing broken products, just to meet numbers. They do feed us once a month, which is great, but the “kehe family” gimmick is cap. Supervisors and higher management don’t even acknowledge your presence. Be prepared to go 8-10 hours without even talking to anyone.

Cons

I’m surprised they havent gotten sued yet with how unsafe the warehouse is. I rolled my ankle twice since I’ve been here by stepping on broken pallets to get the products. Since any accidents automatically gets a drugged test, you take in on the chin, and get back to picking. Numbers is the only thing that matters at the end of the day.

Nepotism is out of control....& Company still financially unstable

Financial analyst

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Very laid back culture - good place to work if you don't want to be pressured to perform or expand your skill set. Company is very active in philanthropy.

Cons

Nepotism is rampant, CEO himself drives the culture of nepotism. Slim chances of getting promoted in the corporate office if you don't go to CEOs church or have close family connections. Salary is significantly below Chicago/national average - don't expect competitive salary or any kind of significant annual merit increase Company is financially unstable - credit ratings have been improving through COVID sales bump but EBITDA is not sustainable/leverage is still unhealthy - virtually all growth has been through issuance of new debt
