Vantaggi
- The work in inbound isnt too tough, its easy to learn where merchandise goes in 2-3 weeks of doing the same thing. - 10% Employee discount that also stacks with the 5% red card discount but everything is so much more expensive than Walmart and Amazon that the discount is only worth it for certain items (like PS5's, Xbox's, etc). The discount isnt worth it for groceries because their so much more expensive at Target than Walmart or other places. - Pays about average or a little below average for the region where I live, if the managers and leads werent always trying to rush people to do 40 hours worth or work in 32 hours it wouldnt be too bad of a job if it was close to where you live. - Some of the managers were friendly and very supportive but others were kind of jerks who were always trying to rush people, giving them ugly looks, and piling more work on to them when they were just finishing up the work that was assigned to them.
Svantaggi
- When you get hired they have you fill out an availability sheet saying how many hours you want to work and the time + days that your available to work. I filled out my sheet saying I want to work Full time, 40 hours a week, and im available any time and every day but I never get scheduled more than 32 hours a week. The job ad when I applied for the job said it was a Full time position too but I never get 40 hours. - Managers and leads try to rush you when your working in inbound to unload trucks and they dont have A/C or fans in the area where you unload the trucks so there were days when I went home like if I took a sweat bath or like if I just came from an intense gym workout. After you finish unloading everything off the trucks (usually 1-2 trucks per shift) you will be sent to a department to take stuff off the pallets and put them where they go on the different aisles. - Some managers and leads were nice and supportive while other managers and leads were always trying to rush me to finish quicker, put me to do a bunch of work by myself without help when everyone else got help, and then they would ask me to go help other departments when I finish my assigned work. I dont know maybe they like to push people that they see as hard workers harder than others? - I always got the sense that they were trying to rush me to finish faster because they didnt want to give anyone 40 hours a week so they try to make you do 40 hours worth of work in the 32 hours or so that they schedule you per week. - The company culture is kinda scary, their big into protecting the protected groups (LBTGQ+ and BLM) so you can get accused of being racist or hate speech for making a joke that someone didnt like or if someone thinks that your looking at them funny and they can make a report against you that could possibly get you in trouble so the atmosphere is kinda tense when I worked there. If your not part of a protected group its easy for people who are part of a protected group to hold that fact over you as an advantage in their favor. - I noticed a few clicks (groups of people that are always hanging out together) while I worked there, I tried to make friends with some of them to be friendly around co-workers but some of them felt like they werent too friendly, their probably used to seeing employees come and go frequently with the company because while I worked there I often saw new hires that didnt lasts 1-2 weeks after getting hired. - I always stayed quiet and just did my work that I was supposed to but I still came across people with attitudes sometimes when they sent me to help other people and they didnt like the way that I was trying to help them with their departments.
