Pros

Personally, I'm in love with the backend work that I do for my store as well as the employee discounts that I get whenever I want to buy a gift for my family/friends! The workspace is really easygoing and there are times when you are pushed to your very best during peak hours, but I see that as a good thing for growth. Make sure that your management is great in the sense that they truly care about your team and whether or not you are getting the help that you need!

Cons

Sometimes the hours are very short for the employees during non-peak months, so you could struggle a little bit doing some of the warehouse duties on your own. For instance, the beginning Q1 and Q2 parts of the year are stale in the sense that we don't have many employees working in comparison to Black Friday / Christmas time. Despite this, you could have a lot of orders coming in and it'll be much harder fulfilling them on your own instead of with a team. Also, make sure that you have your schedule in check! Working night shifts (2-11pm) as a warehouse employee has its repercussions for sure.

Pros

No Need to sell or deal with customers (Much) Constantly moving so you always have a task to do Management leaves you to your own devices Almost all warehouse employees have a set of headphone

Cons

Everyone (Cust & employees) Expect an encyclopedic knowledge on where every single item is. Management seems to think we can lift a 85" tv, pull a washer off the top shelf, stock gaming shelves, and handle store pick up at the same moment. Customers think we don't want to help them when we call someone else to help with sales There's almost too much to do and even though we may have 1-3 employees working at a time, 1 is at the door, 1 is behind store pick up, which leaves 1 employee to handle new orders, deliveries, and down stocking.
