Pros
Good supervisors. Computer guidelines easy to follow.
Cons
Many times new hires come and are not told how to reach their percentages for the company. There are continuous write ups but no corrective measures on how to fix the issue. There are no guides lines that show how to reach your said percentage goal per week nor is there anything that shows you that via training. There is a 30 minute training on a pallet jack that has caused MANY injuries bc the training is NOT thorough. The only experience we get to understand how to hit the percentage is by a simple drive through each department (freezer,cool,dry) on a pallet jack and maybe 2 days with a trainer, who may or may not want to be there to train you that day. Attention to detail is NOT something a person who has been there for 15 or 20 years bc they are used to what works for them. New hires will never get that from someone that is currently making $33 an hour while trying to reach new habits that are $19 an hour and are safe to show a progression. Increasing production 5% per week would be fair IF guidelines were in place to show a new hire how to make the progression with the tools available to them. Last thing, if the probationary period is 90 days, the company should invest in those 90 days with each person to show them culture of the company. Most are getting fired in 60-70 days before they reach the end of the period, which is cool bc the company can hire day/night workers to cover them without no true liability to the company….another story, another time.
