Pros

The job is easy, pay and benefits are good. The majority of the day consisted of driving alone in your truck, which was nice not having managers or co workers breathing down your neck all day.

Cons

Driving on bad winter roads is stressful. Some employees seemed like they were out to throw people under the bus and get others in trouble or fired. The work life balance was pretty bad. A 10 hour day was about as short of a day you could ever hope for and those were a rarity. 12 hour days were average and sometimes days would stretch to 14 hours. Don't try to plan anything during the work week.

Pros

Good pay ,benefits ,and people. Can move up/on to other positions. Education reimbursement too

Cons

Heavier boxes ,also awkward sizes that are large! Then step up into truck with those heavy n awkward boxes.12 hr days, not 10 as posted in job application box. Supposedly contracting out soon so be careful if choose this job.cant follow procedures for truck loading safety bc in reality it’s that’s not how it’s done on trucks bc everyday is a rush (they say it isn’t though)
