Business outlook
Pros
Working as a 'freight monkey' / overnight stocker at WinCo Foods has a fast paced environment. There are a lot of opportunities for overtime, at least when I was there. The medical insurance plan is very good.
Cons
The store is open 24/7, so you can end up opening boxes and stocking shelves with customers walking around you. There is a rush to do as much work as possible with the smallest crew that can pull it off. They didn't want to add positions or raise wages, even when competitors did. At entry level you can make nearly $3 more per hour if you work at a local grocery store, or maybe even walmart. Working at WinCo will probably be harder than being at a different store, because of the way it is managed.
