Pros

Excellent benefits. Wincos ESOP program gives employees stock in the company, and with the company quickly expanding, guarantees any employee a liveable retirement fund within 10 years. To top it, the company almost always promotes from within, leaving lots of room to move up.

Cons

Favoritism, harassment, sexism, and retribution are found amply. Hourly employees are walked on, and "made examples of" if they speak up about issues. Employee contracts are kept under lock and key, and you are not allowed to make copies of them, or anything in the right to know compliance section to take home.

Pros

Great coworkers and managers. The products are great and I loved that I was able to offer great customer service. Moving up and around in the company is easy, positions are always opening up because the company continues to expand. They also have an employee share program

Cons

The hours can be sketchy, depending on the department you're in. Some weeks can be higher than others. The workload is also heavy and the expectations are high but manageable.
