QA is about as toxic as cancer. Do not work here everyone is only out for themselves. If you see a posting for QA in any shape or form DO NOT APPLY! My former boss tried to take away our 15 minutes break away till we all complained to HR about it.

Pros

Good Pay for local job

Cons

In South Florida Location management is big team yet very unorganized. Your clock starts when you walk in and it can be over an hour by the time you get your route and equipment then somehow deliver to 14-18 stops with no instruction on where to park or what to do for that location. Example i once had to park on a sidewalk blocks from a beach location carry the pallet with product and my dolly to back of restaurant then on a little dolly carry product up the stairs over a thousand pounds of it and that was just one stop. You are not set up to succeed in the job just get whatever you can done at any cause. Many more examples like it. Not something you can feel good about. I worked for a subsidiary company in the NW states with a skeleton crew with much more success in similar role.
