Pros

Health benefits are pretty good

Cons

Geolocation time card tracking make it feel like big brother is always watching. They cycle through horrible campus hire interns turned managers, so there is always some new inexperienced person trying to make an impact but they usually burnout. They don’t hire within, they pretend they do but look around and realize everyone has been in their position for years or decades. They used to have managers for each department sales, deliveries, warehouse, merchandisers etc. but now they manage for different districts and it’s a nightmare for everyone. Your manager won’t help you because they won’t know how. They aren’t familiar with the handheld, DOT regulations, merchandise process, it’s impossible to know it all. So they usually lie a lot, I don’t blame them but it’s a mess. This job is a boring dystopia.

Pros

No boss breathing down your back all day.

Cons

No control over force outs. Management forces out product to the market that may not necessarily be needed or fit in the stores. Always have to sell more than the previous year to keep up with sales goals.
