Pros

Weekends off and good benefits.

Cons

I think the issue is diversity. I understand that they include that, but from what I've gathered while working in the warehouse, I've seen otherwise. And unfortunately, being the only African American in the warehouse, I simply don't feel comfortable. Not to mention being commanded by someone who's just a worker like me. And management needs to understand that and rectify that. Because that's how the high turnover rate stays a high turnover rate. And the pay isn't the best for doing more work than your pay. I simply do not feel valued there financially. I'm valued ethically. But not in other aspects. No room for growth. And I notice they do have their favorites as well. When I was an RAR, I felt I made a real difference. But 5 weeks of training, it's not enough. You need AT LEAST a year to grasp everything.l to do it right and it's a bit unfair to those who may not have come from a previous job like this. Once I was in the warehouse, my confidence, joy, trust and value in the workplace was diminishing rapidly. I just don't feel like I'm part of a team.
