Vantaggi
- Great job to work through school with. - The tuition assistance program will reimburse you for up to $5,250 a year. - The company provides all sorts of free food during peak season and as a reward for meeting production goals. - Getting done by 9am is helpful so you could pick up a second job or go to school. - You will never have to work on weekends, even during peak(at least for the shift I work). - They hire from within so there is good opportunity for advancement if you want to go that path.
Svantaggi
- Unbelievably high expectations. They will squeeze every ounce of productivity and efficiency out of you. During heavy weeks I would go hours at a time without enough time to take a sip of water no joke. - Waking up around 3am five days a week will wear on you especially if you have a lot going on outside of work. - Hours are brutal around Christmas. I worked as a driver helper during peak in addition to my preload sort shift and I was working 60 hours some weeks doing hard physical labor. - Extremely high stress environment. If you are physically or mentally weak this job will break you. A lot of new hires have quit after only a couple of days.
