Pros

Depending on your team and supervisor, it can be a great place to work. Very competitive pay and lots of incentives. Hard word is rewarded. Sometimes.

Cons

Very cold in the cooler and sometimes felt like concerns went unheard and unresolved. Boxes go out and that's that. If you have the right mentality you can thrive there (satisfied with boring routine)

Pros

Not many. The rallies were nice. Pre-IPO employees enjoyed Silicon Valley-style perks like daily prepared meals and IPO shares. There is good room for advancement if one is interested.

Cons

Cold miserable work environment. Daily frostbite, repetetive motion, weird aches and pains, high turnaround. Having to dress like Nanook of the North when it's 80 degrees outside. One has to be somewhat desperate (which I was). The daily existential crisis of wondering if what you are doing is actually of any benefit to the world. Unsustainability: Since Blue Apron, the original meal kit delivery company, launched they incurred about half a dozen competitors for what is a finite, niche market. Heck, even Martha Stewart is in on the action now. Their main competitor out of Germany, Hello Fresh, was so brazen they set up a fulfillment center just down the road and stalked me with ads via Google and the iOT just because I frequented my place of work (they thought I was a customer apparently). Oh, and lastly, I did not appreciate being forced to stay late and stand motionless in that freezing environment to give a moment of silence to a violent drug addicted criminal thug (George Floyd).
