Vantaggi

For what we do, the pay and benefits are amazing. They rival military grade benefits. I often found myself saying, "I'm doing what for what?"

Svantaggi

Revolving management and supervisors. In the short time I have been here, (1.5yrs) I have had 4 different supervisors and 3 different managers. This is just one of the major problems, however the most pressing is the expectation of the company on the individual employee. For my position, I had to maintain a less than .01% error rate. Errors are defined as any time a Bin Receiver sends to stock incorrect materials, send customer incorrect materials, sends incorrect quantities to stock or customer, or incorrectly identifies attributes of material. There are many other ways for one to receive an error, these are just the most common. Once an employee starts to receive a few errors, management looks at this as a "trend" in one's behavioral pattern. Once a trend has been established, it is reason enough to terminate the employment of the individual.

Benefits were great! Hybrid work schedule.

Really strict about metrics. You can get laid off for getting below 80% per quarter.

Vantaggi

- Pay/benefits are incredibly generous - People are generally easy/nice to work with - Note that the Systems department seems to be fairly isolated from the negative issues discussed in other reviews (e.g. tension between warehouse workers and management) - I haven't experienced any of those issues within the systems department. In my opinion, Systems is a great place to work and develop as an engineer. - Hybrid work style (3 days in office). Personally, I like hybrid more than both fully in-office and fully remote styles. - Great cafeteria with good food and cheap prices. - Good work/life balance (outside of being on call, I can leave work at work).

Svantaggi

- Work is not super interesting to me. I come from a highly technical, but very different (not ecommerce/industrial supplies), background where I was doing work I was much more interested in. No doubt there are folks in Systems who love the domain though. - While I'm not on call a ton (1-2 weeks every few months), I really hate being on call. I like to leave work at work. Note that joining at least one reliability team is expected within your first year or so.
