It was fine at first until managers breathed down my neck about their quotas

Pros
  • Good coworkers who are decent to work with, and some can even become friends.
  • For me, the health/retirement benefits were decent and provide worker's comp if injured.
  • The time off request system was easy to use.
  • Some PPE is provided at no extra cost.
Cons
  • I felt like the inventory quotas management expected were unnecessary and couldn't always be met.

  • Physical labor can wear you down after a while.

  • You have to be careful not to get injured. For a woman, sometimes bins or boxes can be heavy to carry on your own, and it's inconvenient to ask for help that much.

  • When one facility shut down, I had to travel farther away to another one I transferred to, which really ate my gas.

Advice to Management

Stop moving the goalposts with quotas. Not everyone can work at the same pace.
