Vantaggi
- The pay is great compared to most other warehouse jobs. With the performance incentives and overtime, it's possible to make 45-50k a year. Base pay is generally around 35k, however. - Since this is a night shift job you won't have to deal with much traffic on the roads.
Svantaggi
- Boring and monotonousness work which takes place inside of a windowless facility with little human contact. - Extremely physically demanding. You'll be stacking cases between 50 to 100 pounds for 8 to 10 hours a day while being being required to maintain a strict performance standard. Injuries are not uncommon. - The incentive pay system breeds a cut-throat environment with little teamwork. Most of your co-workers will hate you and vice versa. - You'll work in extreme temperatures, getting as high as 100 degrees in the dry department and as low as 5 below zero in the freezer. - This is a night shift job so you can kiss your social life goodbye. - You'll be working ridiculous hours in the busy season but in the slow season it'll feel like a part-time job. - This is essentially a dead end job unless you're prepared to invest decades to get any meaningful promotion.
