Pros

Free food Easy parking Casual attire, slippers are even ok!

Cons

No training...you can sit next to someone and watch them press buttons for how long...no training manual, NOTHING-thrown out to the wolves LACK of professionalism-constantly talking about other (current & past employees), ones who are just 2 aisle away! Constant bad language and talking about topics that are NOT meant for the work place. Manager CONSTANTLY on her FB, personal email or texting Disgusted with the furniture that we had to sit on/use. None are ergonomically correct, they are old and dirty No organization-the phone will ring until someone gets it, if the other reps are typing an email, "reading a report", talking on their personal phone, texting or flirting with the will call guy forget about anyone answering the phone...oh and the manager, she will answer if she isn't running her mouth about basketball!

Pros

You can make money but it all depends on the orders you get, how fast you can go, how long you can maintain that pace without getting burned out. Definitely a young mans sport, as the do refer to you as "industrial athletes."

Cons

Like many industries the hours can be long. For the ones who don't make much on running above rate then you can make up for it in hours. If you soak the hours and run you can definitely make some big money. The turn over rate is extremely high there, even in management. I used to be proud of the union but the teamsters in Cleveland are completely worthless, I would bet they are getting paid under the table to not fight for contract negotiations. When I was there the contract expired and they barely fought for anything, on voting day they literally said they wont back us up if we don't pass this contract....so consider that when you want to work for this place. Also the equipment is so old and broken that people were taking the scanners home just so they could have a good one for the next night.
