can work from home and 401k

Easy to get hired, job itself isn't too difficult if you ignore performance requirements, pays better than fast food. (not a high bar)

You're overworked often. When I started it wasn't so bad, it was a slower period. We worked 40 hours. When things started ramping up though, it was horrible. I worked the mid shift, they advertise 11 - 7:30, but this quickly stopped being the case. Mandatory overtime was 10 - 7:30, and they forced you to come in at 7AM on saturdays. Duration worked on these extra days varied, sometimes until around 1, other times until 3. Mind you, this is all for a measly $16.50/hr that you could earn at costco or walmart. They stress you a lot, everything is documented, you're penalized for being a minute late, and the floor supervisor definitely wasn't the most approachable guy around. If you care about "company culture", the other employees are usually pretty nice, but expect to get yelled at. It's a production environment and I understand the management gets stressed but don't take it out on the people doing the work. 10 laptops every 8 hours is very hard to hit, and with the way things are run it's made even worse. Expect to be forced to cut some corners when doing your job to hit the performance requirements. If it tells you anything, I was trained with around 15-20 other people. We were left with me and 3 other people a week after training, and a month after that only two people including me were left. If you value your sanity avoid like the plague. Otherwise it's a quick job to have for a few months to pay bills while you look for something else.
