Pros

* Medical benefits are superb. * Payouts are wonderful for new/ first time worker. * The amount of work days are great with the amount of down time you have. * The vacation reports will always be added even if you do apply for overtime shifts. * The benefits they give you outside of medical is astonishing on how long that list is. * You will have up to 3 lunch breaks depending on productivity.

Cons

* will work upwards of 11 (This includes lunch). 13 hours if its in Peak Season. * Clocking in early will take away an hour from both of your PTO and UPT. Clocking in late will do the same. * If your a packer and located in the back of the warehouse, you will have to run from the timesheet machine to make it to the daily group meetings. * Depending on your team leaders, they will not listen nor talk to you even if its something bad. * Some of the Project Supervisors for your department will berate you for a simple mistake. * Half of the equipment will breakdown and cause a jam in the line.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
