Pros

The managers at my store are Very Nice. The hours are conducive to my schedule. The people I work with are great. I get a LOT of walking done in my day. You accrue PPTO (Protected Personal Time Off) as you go which protects you from having to use points when you need to call off. You get 5 points. Which is a lot if you are committed to your job.

Cons

The pay is only $14 an hour. I've been there 5 years and I'm making the same money the new hires make. This is frustrating. For you new hires, You miss a day you get a point. So DONT call off until you have accrued enough PPTO (personal Protected Time Off) to cover your day. The new kids now don't realize you are automatically fired if you miss 5 days and don't use your PPTO. So don't just not show up! No call no show is 2 points. So if you just decide not to show up for 3 times and don't call in. You are FIRED. Also, the theft has increased a lot which makes our jobs in SCO more demanding.

Pros

Perks Goodies Timely pay Fancy looking office

Cons

I worked as a front end developer for close to 2 years and realized 1. Bootlicking makes you a better person in the team. 2. Create more confluence pages and work less on coding. 3. The manager is always right - even if it's means 1+=3. 4. The environment is toxic and the manager is the one poisoning the team. 5. North Indians Vs South Indian racism prevails. 6. Developers lack basic knowledge on coding but are involved in discussions on architecture lol 7. Managers are from service background with zero experience in a product based company. 8. They are recruited solely based on Women in Tech quota. 9. Managers lack basic communication skills. 10. Managers are bootlickers to the peers in the USA and bow down to any requirement thrown at them. 11. Zero compassion towards the team esp wrt working hours.

Pros

Keeps you busy so the day goes by faster. Can offer some physical exorcise while unloading trucks, and more depending on what department you stock.

Cons

Getting everything assigned out and stocked can sometimes be difficult if they pull you to another department to help there temporarily. Customers will likely take up a quarter of your time as well. The manager over you will likely complain if you don't get everything stocked, regardless if you were pulled away from your department. I've stayed hours over my shift just to finish many times so I wouldn't have to listen to it.
