Pros
Formal systems put in place to help employees work better and be safe, safeguards against direct management abuse, competitive wages, good work environment, safety staff onsite, focus on working with healthy posture/form. There are some genuinely good managers who care about the workers and try and find ways to motivate/mentor people.
Kontras
1) Severe lack of oversight with some authority positions (by submitting bogus write-ups, safety team can have somebody automatically fired without any chance for appeal). 2) Rampant favoritism (see "Advice to Management") 3) Some truly perplexing hiring choices for managers. People who have no experience leading in a warehouse environment are brought in under the assumption "They were in the military/have a business degree/were in the police so that must mean they're good at ordering people around!" More often than not, these people are incompetent and rely on bullying and/or passive-aggressiveness to lead, and later are merely transferred instead of being fired or demoted. 4) "Dog & pony show" internal job system. Yes if you work hard you can rise to management position (expect to be scanning boxes for at least 2 years unless you're a brown-noser) but the much-touted job system that should assist you in using your engineering/marketing/other professional degree is a total joke. If you apply and IF you ever do hear back (which is hilariously unlikely and can take months without any feedback or status updates whatsoever), you can expect to be up against PhD graduates in the interviews. 5) A tunnel vision focus on scan-rates and other productivity metrics while turning a blind eye to the consequences ("SORRY YOUR LANE KEEPS JAMMING, MR./MRS. SPLITTER! BUT I GOTTA KEEP SCANNING BOXES, SO I WON'T HELP PUSH THE INCOMING FLOW!!!" "SORRY THESE PALLET LOADS KEEP FALLING OVER , MR./MRS. WRAPPER, BUT I GOTTA KEEP SCANNING BOXES, SO I'M JUST GONNA TOSS EACH ONE ONTO A PALLET INSTEAD OF INTELLIGENTLY STACKING IT!!!") 6) Good workers are taken for granted and then management is completely stunned when they walk out the door after dealing with everything I've already said.
