Pros

Flex-time (a bit of flexibility to achieve 80 hours of work)

Cons

Advancement ( pay increase or title promotion) are rare and only offered to a select group. Management will tell you that there are opportunities, but RF doesnt give regular evaluations which means they dont have to give raises. People have been fighting for the smallest increases. One guy just left after 20 yrs. Others are taking on extra duties to try to earn more money. 4 years without being considered for a raise is rough. HR is backwards and demeans people. Makes ppl feel beneath them. RF allows it. HR can snap at you, talk to you like a child and refuse to verify your employment when you leave (just a few real life examples). Morale is dead and control is high. Employees have asked for snacks forever only to receive micro cups used to rinse your mouth out to drink out of. Its ridiculous. Also new warehouse managers are encouraged to micromanage. Dont be fooled. They will sell a great story but it is currently a revolving door. Lost around 12 to 15 ppl in a yr (only 30 in the office). More ppl are looking to get out. Do yourself a favor and look somewhere else. Dont believe the hype and fall for the British accent. Trust me
