Vantaggi

It pays very well (36.5$/h+ possible extra depending on shift) for a student job (or regular). Even better if you do over time (1.5x up to 2x), which happens pretty often. The work itself is not too demanding, but requires learning how to operate the forklift, and requires great physical shape. Compared to other places, supervisors do not stress you to perform fast, but they might ask you to prioritise tasks.

Svantaggi

As a student, you'll have to work on Friday night (10 pm - 8 am schedule), which is brutal; it deregulates your sleeping habits, and you won't recognize yourself after a few years. As a full-time employee, especially at the beginning, you don't always choose which schedules you will be assigned. You might notice your concerns might get lost in bureaucracy, so you need to keep reminding management. As a student, you'll have no seniority over anyone, so the long tasks will be assigned to you, while your older peers might just enjoy the downtime.

Vantaggi

Great conditions and pretty engaging workplace. Great compensation salary-wise. Good managerial staff. Great autonomy.

Svantaggi

Working hours are the only thing that are not great but you are warned in advance. The rotating shifts can be a pain for out-of-work planing. We get our schedules 1 week in advance which isn't great for planning.

Vantaggi

This company may work for those early in their careers, but it’s not sustainable long-term. There is an implicit expectation to work extended hours to keep up with demands, and a lot of your weekends often involve preparing for the week ahead due to constantly changing priorities. This pace leads to rapid burnout hence the reason it's not a viable option long-term. While peak workloads are common in most businesses, this company operates at that intensity year-round. While not always the case, leadership occasionally makes uncertain or delayed decisions often driven by fear or their limited experience which does contribute to the instability. Many who remain do so mainly for the competitive pay and benefits or their title rather than a sustainable work environment.

Svantaggi

No work life balance Lacks real support for critical areas Unstable environment for long term career
