Was welcoming until management either changed or I got to know their true colors, they have the wrong attitudes for the workplace. Not knowing the product and what it is to take a call and make you feel dumb for asking questions but I guess thats what they do when they dont know themselves, yet dont try to seek answers to your questions either: for that you are less valuable. They walk the floor eating, just very negative energy, it's toxic in there. You ask for a day off on family emergencies and get denied but the "boss" can get up and leave as desired to go out and have fun, seriously. It is true what they say, if you mess up no one tells you about it and common sense is to let reps know so they dont make the same mistakes(build you to be the best) but instead expect being thrown under the bus on an email that everyone can view. I highly doubt these people have management backgrounds. Instead they hover over you totally making you feel like you're always doing something wrong rather than feeling like they're there to help you and even then they give you nasty attitudes, leads who are probably underpaid but not my fault, puppets, except for one of the leads who struck me as an extrovert, great leader, good to know she's no longer there. She and a couple other people, very few, absolutely wonderful people. Entry level good, sure but just build your resume and run.

The Warehouse in DecoPac provides many opportunities for advancing your skills and experience in distribution practices. They reward motivated individuals that actively want to learn more and demonstrate reliability and consistency in their work. Their standards are easily achievable as long as you work hard and show up on time every day.

Management of the company has declined some in the last couple of years. A few changes in leadership positions and some of those leaders have a tendency to show favoritism to undeserving employees or have fragile egos. This sounds bad, but only shows itself in rare circumstances. The biggest problem permeating the culture of the workplace is communication. Assumptions are made quite often leading to various problems.

Overall, it is a decent place to work that pays well for what they're requiring of their workers with annual raises given to all employees based on merit. Plenty of good opportunities for motivated workers and a generally positive atmosphere.

*Typical day is spent visiting customers. First making sure needs have been met,helping to check inventory,review upcoming holidays and taking order if product is needed.
*Learned technical skills for PhotoCake cake image systems.(Trouble shooting & repair)
CRM training 
Microsoft Word & Excel
*Work place culture - Outside sales varied from client to client.
*Hardest part: Working my regular business day then holidays weekends & evenings as well.
*Best part of my job:
visiting customers and taking care of their needs, meeting new people and  sharing information with other members of the sales team.

After a few months this was just a place to work for me. I liked it because it kept me busy. It was kind of like playing tetris all day. They plan fun things for the employees.. Like bring in food trucks. Or they get food catered. Have drawings. And giveaways during the holidays.

The only thing I really didn't like was when performance reviews came up you were forced to give them ideas or input.. If you didn't, you'd be given a bad score. It was stupid.

The smokers designated spots were right in front of the entrances! Which sucks for the non smokers. We had to walk through a cloud of smoke just to get some fresh air. Not cool.

First off this job isn't hard at all, it's scanning party products and putting them in boxes. That being said it can be hectic at times due to the fact that they are severely understaffed and bribing the other workers to get new hires. Second is your schedule, IT WILL ALWAYS CHANGE AND NEVER STAY CONSTANT, but your end time usually stays the same. And last the management is half assed when comes to things needed to be fixed or changed instead providing new ideas before even fixing the old ones. The bright side to this job free pop and pb&j, and you get full health benefits. Over all it's nice job for a few months, but move up when you can.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The people I worked with and learning many things in the shipping department. Wish they kept the weekly pay but unfortunately we had to go bi-weekly.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Having to deal with too much overtime when needed, including the Saturdays if needed

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Great feel of the company and in the warehouse. They are very family oriented when it came to special events and taking care of the employees 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Going in and enjoying the accompany of the other employees

People quit all the time. The starting rate is extremely low, dont expect to afford rent with it. Their benefits aren't great either. They don't have any programs for promotion or raises, but since they always have a staffing issue, they will persuade you to cross train and cover for other areas-you will NOT be compensated for this! Don't fall for it. HR does more damage than help. Car theft is common in this area and it is not worth it! There are plenty of opportunities with better pay and benefits in the same Fife area. Work here if you are absolutely desperate, but don't stay! Get out!

What is the best part of working at the company?
Able to work at home and the coworkers were great

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Having to keep call times down and having to upsell products

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Very stressful, no matter what I did they always found negative things yet I was great with customers

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Answer calls, take supply orders, help customers find items

This place was a stepping stone for me, just a temporary job until I found something else that paid better. I worked here until I had a job offer from another company. I gave notice of quitting of two weeks and then left.
