Pros

Plenty of hours, decent hourly wage for labor. Many different shifts available to dovetail with your schedule.

Cons

Abusive environment. Dangerous and unhealthy working conditions. Bad tyrannical management that is constantly looking for new and exciting ways to browbeat and humiliate people into working even harder than they already are. Crappiest place on the planet. Huge gobs of moldy dust caked to the screens of the fans that blow "air" into stifling hot trucks. Ice-cold working conditions in the winter, especially when someone "forgets" to turn on the heat. Dock managers are forced by upper management to always have something to be on the workers about. If it's not "load rate", it's "scan rate". If it's not scan rate it's "cube". If your'e doing everything really well they'll send you back to "Load Academy" just to embarrass you into trying to work harder. You get out every shift and can barely walk and then stand in a long line like livestock waiting to be patted-down by Security before you're allowed to leave. I quit last night and it was better than sex.

Pros

Easy to apply, fast to get hired (no interview process) and the pay

Cons

Very rude management, lack of care for safety, no drinkable water (all filters are in the red and have been since I started) They have cameras everywhere and are constantly watching you but say you can’t bring your own phone in because “people steal them”? There is junk everywhere. Lots of trash everywhere (employees drinks and food). They want you to work and eat on the line instead of giving you breaks to do so. They get upset when you use the bathroom or fill your water bottle even if you’ve been working for 3 hours straight but if you clock in at an area 2 min walking distance from your work area you’re “stealing time” I’ve noticed people of color get treated differently. The HR department has some of the most prejudice employees so there’s no real equality if you have conflict with someone. I’ve never been, but it feels like a prison to go in and out of the building and lastly you don’t work a consistent schedule. You leave when they say you can.
