Pros

- Great benefits, including dental and vision, at a reasonable price. - Plenty of opportunity for voluntary time off during the slower months. - Literally ANYONE can get a job here.

Cons

- Back-breaking work weeks during Peak Season (November-December) and in the lead-up to Prime week (June/July). - Little opportunity for advancement. - While some coworkers are decent people, the vast majority of Amazon's workforce is comprised of the absolute dregs of society. Expect to interact with junkies and criminals on a daily basis. - Ridiculous rules that have no bearing on job performance. - Complete lack of empathy from middle management. - Bait and switch "incentives" like the Variable Compensation Program that rarely deliver what recruiters advertise.

The medical benefits and stock that you receive after your initial two years are the only good things about this job.

Pros

Will loose weight and there is room to grow if you decide to stay here for a few years. There is favoritism in all departments. There is high turn over. Lots of overtime only then you can make 40K+ in salary

Cons

There is rate/hour for stowing products and picking products, in all departments. Rate + quality + productivity should 100% or get fired. "Time out of Task" is another one, if you had to use to bathroom during the shift then the scanner will show "Time out of Task" and you will get a feedback fro manager then you are fired. When the rest of Canada is having a day off, Amazon is open 24/7 and during Peak December you are forced to do Mandatory overtime(MOT), its in the contract. There MOT all throughout the year and they can call it even if you are on a day off. So if you are enjoying a day off at a nearby town with the family, you will get a call for MOT and if you don't show up then get attendance points deducted, there are only 6 attendance points, then fired. Shifts are Front half Sun-Wed and Back Half Wed to Sat. Good luck. Very low wages to the amount of work and politics that associates have to bear. That is why this company is heavily investing is robots.
