Pros

Very clean and well organized wharehouse.

Cons

These are just my opinions and not stated facts. A lot of micromanaging goes on to the point that it's annoying. People don't work well together at the main distribution center. There are some nice people who work there, but far more annoying ones than good ones. Like others have said in their reviews, they don't care if something comes up in your personal life and you need to miss a day — you’re still going to get a point. They want you to be flexible and work overtime when needed, but they aren't willing to do the same. Overall, it's just bad management and a burnout job that will get you nowhere.
