If you want to keep you job; show up for work when you are scheduled.  They are performance based so you will be held to a standard of 70 percent.  It is a formula that is not understood by the naked eye, but 70 percent is usually achievable if you keep your head in the game. You are not just fired if you fall below 70 percent.  They will coach you as much as could be expected from a company.  They will always consider contributing factors.  It is an overall score, not a daily witch hunt.

I do not use their benefits so I cannot speak to that.  I would not be mad if I made more money, but it seems as if the pay is competitive and to a new person in the work force, it seems better than expected. 

Management is being held to a standard just like the line worker.  They are the standard bearers, the enforcers of the policies.  Having said that, good luck working anywhere thinking that you are going to like every personality that you meet.  Not likely where you are at, not likely where you are going. Deal with your personality and how it affects you and those around you first.

I worked for Aurozone in Hazleton, Pennsylvania as a delivery truck driver. My main experience with the company was that it had a very strong culture of micromanagement. The fleet manager, who oversaw the entire plant, was constantly controlling every area—from human resources to dispatch to the drivers themselves. He needed to know every single driver personally and would often suggest or push them to do things that really weren’t necessary or appropriate.

Additionally, there was a lot of favoritism. The manager relied on certain employees who acted like informants, gossiping and reporting everything to him. This created a stressful environment where it felt like your job stability depended more on how much the manager liked you or how well you played along rather than your actual performance. They didn’t seem to care if you got stuck or faced issues on the route, as long as you did what they wanted.

In summary, the environment was heavily controlled and not supportive of the drivers. It was all about keeping the manager happy rather than ensuring a fair and respectful workplace.

Autozone is one of those companies where you like it or deal with it (As in really hate it but need income). 
They have very high expectations on productivity so if you’re the type of person who likes to go their own pace, this isn’t for you. It’s extremely physical demanding. Job application will ask if you can lift 50lb,  but you will most likely be lifting 60lb+ on your own constantly with no help(team lift boxes).
 Personally, my advisors and shift managers are pretty cool but the environment could be very stressful. Some days you just have to be ready to come home sore, wanting to call out the next day to give your body the reset it needs but unfortunately they take attendance VERY seriously. 
They lay of employees left and right, causing the current workers to work harder during overtime to keep up the productivity up and at times gets unfair. 
If you are looking for a career here, just know that unless you have a drive for going up the ladder, they will use you to the fullest extent with no hesitation. Train your body before working here, it is definitely recommended.

Autozone doesn't care about its employees. They want you to do the last shifts work as well as your work for the day. Management doesn't understand you must lead by example and you must hold all workers to he same standards. There were internal "clicks" that had definite favoritism and that is very bad when you have workers that will not conform to brown nosing. They could not admit they were not addressing safety concerns. They also had a bogus 12point policy which for a parent especially a single parent can not comply with cause there is no way to schedule unforseen issues at home within just 12 days.

You come in at 7:30 in the morning and you meet at your area you do warm ups together and the advisor tells you what's going on in the company and what our goal is and how we are as a team.  The management is unbelievable. They are always encouraging you pushing you forward and coaching you to become a better worker. 

It was an okay place. There’s only a few people in management who actually know their job and what they’re doing. There’s a lot of them that are just there because there’s no one coming to who actually wants to be in that position. There’s gossip all of the time and can get very annoying. There’s favoritism and a lot of people get away with acting like an idiot. I did like they’re monthly meetings but you’re not really acknowledged a lot of the times for you work and efforts.

You come in, do your job, try to be excel at it and maybe get promoted, and mind your own business, and it seems like many people have an issue. Coworkers are very cliquey and love to gossip. Many people have their nose up others you know what. Several managers there and they could give a rats behind about your job or even their job for the matter. Mind numbingly repetitive job. Only positive is it is a stable job as long as you meet production.
