Pros
Weekly pay, starting benefits, nothing more sadly since new supervision took over/ got moved around
Cons
I do have to say when I started it wasn’t bad with the supervision we had. It’s when the new ones came in it got worse. It is a very sexist work environment and they have favorites who get away with everything. Short hours one week not making over 30 hours. Forced to work overtime outside your availability or be fired the next week. Company expects you to never use the restroom unless your on your break. Some breaks are almost 4 hours apart but they want you to keep drinking water because the warehouse gets hot. There’s no room for growth because they keep changing how they allow you to cross train and push your back further and further seems like the only choice for growth is to get a new job because they are always over staff but somehow short staffed at the same time. Training get pushed around until your points accumulate and then you can no longer train anywhere else for months at a time. Can’t assist other departments or areas of your department because “it’s outside our job” and it messes up your rate but it affects others job functions and flow because half the staff that supports and moves pallets out the way are too busy elsewhere and we have to assist with there functions without any downtime because it doesn’t get approved because keep getting told it’s not in our job function but if we don’t do it, it slows our rate down not there’s. Management is very micromanaging towards the picker mod specifically but will never step up to help when we are behind but they sent our staff to other departments then make us work a mandatory Friday. Around holidays your forced to work wierd schedules which include working Friday and Sundays even though your hired to work Monday-Thursday only. Only two clock in the whole warehouse visible and you get written up for pulling your phone out to look at the time because your trying not to be late to break or you like to see how long your books take but it backfires and they issue you a canal write up even if it’s your first time doing it, your phone could have been locked and all you did was look at the time bug they don’t care. If your newer to the warehouse you have to park in the far lot because god forbid you park in the lot near the building and you have someone hollering at you telling you, that you took there spot or they leave passive aggressive notes on your windshield making you not want to park near anyone, HR doesn’t always have your back and doesn’t care about your safety even when threatened in the parking lot over a company owned parking spot that isnt marked for one specific person. Get everything in writing like an email. Very hard to have management, supervisors or HR to keep there words unless you have it in writing. They will back pedal and cover there own but and act like they never talked to you or told you something specific. Bathrooms usually nasty even shortly after being cleaned. Been here a year and they haven’t had toilet seat covers at all the entire time I’ve been here which is unsanitary. I’ve asked several times and still nothing months later. Sucks for women who have to sit to use the restroom.
