Pros

Simpified warehouse work, benefits day one, good starting pay

Cons

Management and HR do not coordinate... at all. If you have a good management team, you wont for long because they will leave for other employment due to how the ops managers and upper management run things and treat people. They bring in college grads with no work experiance rather then promoting and listening to their process assistants who are the ones actually making things work. If you are intelligent and can see the flaws in the system, it will drive you crazy and dread going to work. Breaks start and end on the floor, so 15 minutes is only about 5-7 bc of walking time because you cant have food, drinks or cell phones on the floor. Same with 30 minute lunch....when you are doing 10-12 hour days....it becomes grueling. Especially if on overnights. The company reconizing its workers hard work and giving them a little bit longer to relax would make a big difference. If you treat people like robot slaves, it doesnt inspire them to work hard for you.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
