Pros

Competitive pay is the only pro. A few good people to work with

Cons

No real benefits, micromanagement, dishonesty. The worst response to the Covid-19 pandemic that I have seen from any company's headquarters. No option for office employees to work remotely and forcing employees to write their hours on a shared piece of paper putting everyone in any given department at risk. Multiple employees testing positive and they hold the information for multiple days before informing the employees they have been around potentially putting many more people at risk in the meantime. If you value the safety of your family and yourself avoid this company.

Pros

Enjoyable work. You will never be bored. Must people are enjoyable. The company is financailly very stable. Don't have to worry about it going under.

Cons

OK pay. What you make in a year is really dependent on how much overtime you work. Health insurance is expensive. No company retirement plan. They try to spin the profit sharing as your "retirement plan" however that money barely brings your yearly total to the bottom side of what other employers offer with base pay. Training, for associate buyers, is basically "here's the basics of these three programs. Figure everything else out. Don't mess up. But if you do, I will tell you you're wrong but not tell you why or how to fix it."
