It's hard to tell what the management staff even does around the warehouse. You'll see them chatting it up among themselves and pulling their phones out in the middle of the day while general warehouse workers are scattering to pick/pack orders and meet their daily quota. Too much work for amount of workers there are which means overtime every night. Yeah you only work maybe 45 hours a week which doesn't sound awful, but that is legitimately 45 hours of straight work. There is no time to chat with coworkers since you have to hit your daily quota for lines. There's barely time to go to the bathroom or fill up your water bottle. I've seen guys get talked to for spending too much time in the bathroom.
Management has to get a certain amount of negative audits throughout the day so they will literally hide behind places so they might catch a worker doing something incorrectly. At the end of the night when there is still a lot of work to do management refuses to hop on a truck and help out. They'll just tell guys that they are going slow and overtime is inevitable.
Don't bank on moving up. There are guys who have been there years who are still picking. The company doesn't promote from within often but rather hires from the outside. The outside hires get barely any training on the job but then are given the responsibility of telling others how to do theirs. The company does very well because it is very customer friendly but most employees, in the warehouse at least, are very unhappy.
Managers hang job over head constantly. General warehouse workers literally avoid talking with the management staff because they only bring bad news to the table. Management staff seem to get off on making people feel bad about themselves. I'm guessing it's a motivational tool to continually get people to improve, but all it does is destroy confidence or make people jaded
Oh and the hours are terrible. No time to do anything before or after work. Uline becomes home.
