Pros

Coworkers are friendly. You get an employee discount at retail store however you can not afford to shop there.

Cons

They only pay 10,50 an hour compared to other warehouses in Iowa doing same kind of work paying 15. you wait a year and 3 months for your yearly raise because they go a year from your 90 day raise. The majority of employees who have been there for 7mths or more are over age 45. the younger stronger help doesn't usually stay more than 6mths. they are very short staffed for the amount of work going out. They do not address safety issues, as they are more concerned with out put. they communicate things such as overtime through notes on time clock day of. they have 50 and 60 year old women pulling around pallet jacks being expected to lift 100 lb grills, lawn mowers, rolls of plastic cases of oil, cases of antifreeze, bags of grass seed, water heaters, etc. they shut down day after thanksgiving but don't pay you so if you are still in 90 days you loose to days pay that week. Most unorganized ungrateful company I ever worked for. work is very physical and will take a great toll on you body.

Pros

Good workplace if you are a high school student, flexible schedule.

Cons

Didn't leave the cash register, so didn't get a lot of experience or knowledge on the product being sold

Pros

The customers, animals that come thru, employee discount.

Cons

Low pay, daily drama, harassment that management and HR won't do anything about. Poor work/life balance. They have gotten away from values, and don't care about their employees.
