Pros

Pay per hour is better than most in the area. Health Insurance

Cons

They present this coming as a wonderful place to work. It's NOT! The negative point system they have for attendance is impossible. They have no regard for your health or safety. Miss a day because of illness -2 points, even with a doctor excuse. Can't get out of your neighborhood because of freezing rain and have to drive through the mountains-2 points, even if your town is under a state of emergency. Stuck on the freeway in traffic because of an accident -1 point for being ONE minute late. There's 1/2 the points against you before a write-up Didn't get your 55/picks/hr? Warehouse is 1/4 mile long and you cover the entire distance whether you were sent out with a pick cart that had 15 picks or 60 - where's the logic? EXTREMELY HIGH TURNOVER RATE - THEY DON'T CARE - EVERYONE THERE IS CONSIDERED REPLACEABLE NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU WORK!!!

Pros

Some perks such as pet adoption reimbursement, sort of flexible schedule, learning opportunities.

Cons

We have transitioned into the Chewy family recently and it started out promising but has quickly become quite the opposite. Management put in place to oversee the business (1 or 2 in particular) have been nothing but degrading and nasty to people - for things that were out of our hands due to direction of previous management. They did a reorg recently which had a lot of questionable moves and claimed they want to go deeper in expertise but that is not the case here. There are many people in roles that they shouldn’t be. The reorg also left many people in lower roles than what their actually doing, probably to avoid paying appropriately. We are also being held to different standards than other parts of the business in terms of the quality of output - We’re producing better but it’s still not good enough. They claim to be getting us more resources but we have not seen that yet. They hired one marketing leader but what we need is a true GM and proper support staff to execute things.not only “leaders”.
