Pros

Work 4 1/2 days a week and make 50-70,000 a year depending on how many stops you are given for the year. And every year they take stops or add stops to ur rout so u never know how much ur paychecks wil be. You have a base pay plus commission. And to get base pay you must work 40 hrs a week. Overtime is paid in Chinese overtime. So u make around $8 hr any hours over 40 so most people just leave when they get done.

Cons

You have to take a pay cut to move up In the company. You can only move up to supervisor from driver and u take a pay cut and you cannot move up further without a degree. Don’t matter what degree. I’ve seen a kid with a bachelors in bible study be brought right in and promoted over everyone else who has worked for a long time.

Pros

Pay was decent though not great, good benefits, could pretty much make your own schedule, nice year-end bonus.

Cons

Recall was horribly mismanaged, upper management was not forthcoming with information with their own employees, poor manufacturing procedures led to people dying and thousands being laid off.

Pros

If you get to work at the right location the pros are endless. People are great and everything to follow is better.

Cons

If you get stuck working at the wrong branch or the wrong people are placed in management there that are racist, sexist, or play favorites then your done for. I have been with blue bell for sometime and have trained at other locations before I came to Richmond, Va. branch and I have to say that the 3 that run this location should all be fired to demoted based off the way they treat others below them. I have seen race play a factor in how you are treated there and sex as well. Also, if your over a certain age there is no need to apply because they will never call you back. These 3 managers make working at this location seem like hell due to the way they talk to you and go after you once your working there and you are not up to their standards. I could say calling the HR department in regards to this problem will not help due to others doing this and still nothing has been done to them any of them. Stay away from this branch....!
