Pros

There are some fantastic co-workers, and some really intelligent people there. Generally, you are given the tools to complete your work and solve problems. The culture there is pretty inclusive and there isn't too much petty bickering other than what one would expect from a company of that size.

Cons

Surprise, but management can be shortsighted and sometimes ineffective. This seems to increase with seniority, with few exceptions. Also, while most co-workers were awesome, the absolute worst are the pilots if you're lucky enough to have to deal with them. I've never met a more self-serving, arrogant, obnoxious group. Very surprised at that.

Other than keeping your Job, working hard doesn't benefit you here.

Pros

Money was good for what you were doing. You get a raise for just staying for longer than a month. Job is very easy mentally, you just put boxes on a belt. Your work days never changed, so you always knew your schedule. Management were lenient when asking for days off.

Cons

Managers were nice one day, but very rude and disrespectful the next. Managers in a sense are slave drivers, meaning no matter how ahead of schedule or how hard you work, they wanted you to work harder. Managers get angry if you start to slow down slightly after lifting 50 Ib boxes straight for two hours. Overall just a lot of disrespect and lack of constructive motivation from managers. Aside from management, working there in winter is bitter cold. The job is also very repetitive.
