Pros

The pay is decent. Honestly can't think of any other "pros".

Cons

Going in at 6am to unload pallets with just two other people. Being timed on EVERYTHING (how fast you ring up customers items, how quickly you complete the transaction, unloading pallets, etc.) that you do. If you don't get something done immediately because you have to jump on the register or a customer needs help, you'll hear about it. They claim that they do whatever they can to help a customer, but when you do, your productivity goes down and coworkers (shift managers) get angry with you. The training is TERRIBLE. The hours are ridiculous and leave you zero time to have an outside life. If you decide that you want part time (a casual associate) you might not get any hours at all. Not a good system. At all. Should you choose to accept the offer, you'll need PLENTY of energy drinks and a lot of tolerance. High stress, horrible employee relations, and not enough employees is just an equation for FAILURE. This company is flawed.
