Very Low Pay

Pros

You are pretty much guaranteed a job if you apply for a seasonal position. They also allowed me to advance over the years.

Cons

Pay is very low compared to other warehouses. I was a team lead so I unloaded trucks, received merchandise into inventory, did paperwork, managed people, and trained people. I was also required to become certified on all forklift and pallet jack equipment. With all of those job duties they paid me less than a material handler would get at just about any other warehouse.

Pros

For me, the very best thing about Harry and David is the "family feel" and collaborative environment. Although it is a traditional company with 80 years of history, the culture is one that welcomes new ideas and supports creativity. Cross functional teams are incredibly warm, close knit, and a group of people who sincerely love their jobs as well as working together.

Cons

Probably the most challenging aspect of working at Harry and David would be the seasonal nature of the business and the heightened urgency that can bring. Longer hours may be required during the holidays, but that doesn't mean there is any shortage of holiday cheer on the campus. From company carolers to participating in numerous holiday charities, the seasonal culture and schedule is demanding, but also incredibly rewarding.

Pros

Good customer experiences. Very friendly place to work and the staff is very nice. Company tries to be proactive to keep morale upbeat.

Cons

The company has turnover like any company. The company does not pay as well as they should and hours get scarce during certain times of the year. Constantly have to defend the companys' viability.
