Pros

Flexible work schedule. Decent hourly pay. Great benefits for a part time job.

Cons

Until you become a full time associate, expect to have a second job to make ends meet. Part time is typically 4 hour shifts five days per week. (20 Hrs)

Pros

Perhaps the difference is that I'm approaching this from late in life. I was thrilled to be hired at 62 and am by far not the oldest. It's hard work and it beats me up almost every night but I feel accomplished. Also, I chose to work and do not have to worry about making rent. The pay is way above minimum and management is firm, but fair. Every workplace has drama, but on Night Sort we all do all of the jobs and are on more/less equal footing. It surprises me that I like it. After a lifetime of job stress in the "cube farm" it's a pleasure to show up, put in the effort, clock out and go home without taking it with me. There are small perks they don't have to do: pizza, candy, Swagbucks, time off at will, T-shirts, gift cards. And you will get in shape.

Cons

It IS physical labor with nowhere to sit down. The packages seem to never stop coming down the belt. It helps to be in a good mental place. Co-workers who are not supervisors will try to supervise you. Decisions are made for the good of the business and not the good of the humans. Just accept this and keep going.

Pros

Always busy. Production is always in higher numbers. Great job opportunities. Fast paced environment. Always Something to do.

Cons

The employees suck and a few leads and poor management. Lazy workers and a lot of the females employees only focused on herrassing me when ever possible. Management won't listen to your concerns especially when being herrassed by employees. Nothing is getting resolved on this issue. They make it stressful and uncomterble to work. Tired of watching my back and is aggrevating me. All I want is peace and quiet from this employees. It needs to stop.
