Pros

Good hours, easy to learn, lots of shift flexibility, and well-organized.

Cons

As a nofrills model it tends to have lower quality and lower condition produce. You may have to deal with more moldy/rotten produce. Easy to clean up though.

Pros

The few coworkers I was with were nice.

Cons

Small wages for monotonous overnight work. They also lied about my hours. A quarter of my paycheck when to a union that I received no benefits from. My supervisor then gave me a phone number that led to no where after letting me go, claiming the number would reimburse me for the union money.
