      Employees are not as valued as they were years ago and management doesn't seem to care anymore.

      Pros

      Benefits, close to home, very nice co-workers, paid weekly

      Cons

      Often left to fend for yourself even if you've only been there for 1 day on the job. Orientation was fantasy, the reality is that you will rarely have time to use bathroom if at all through entire shift, often "forget" or don't care if employees have had scheduled, required breaks and you will work past your scheduled time most of the week. I can count on one hand how many times I actually got off when I was scheduled to leave. Ok if you don't have a life but, if you have family or children to pick-up it can be very problematic with child care.

      Pros

      Always profitable, employee stock ownership program, job security

      Cons

      Corporate positions require long work hours; salaried pay structure for most includes a "bonus" paid in December which is essentially a pro-rated 13th month's pay (i.e., a $60k a year salary is $4615/month for Jan-Dec with a "bonus" of $4615 paid in December if associate remains employeed through year end). The strategy allows the company to retain cash and employee loyalty. Culture is unique - at times cultish. Must be born and bred within the company to move up.
