If your looking for a quick job while your looking for another job then this is the place for you. somewhat understanding of family matters if you have been working there for a long time and are good at your job. your benefits are going to be bare minimum. you get pto, a certain amount a year. The starting associates are good, interesting characters to work with as well. That is all there is that is good about this warehouse. I worked there for a few years. There is no fair financial advancement. You are told to trust the company and that they are growing and you will grow with them. You will not grow with this company unless you know the DC manager and have worked there over 5 years making barely above minimum wage. The more tasks you take on the more you realize there is no benefit to taking on extra tasks, even in the long run. I trained people in shipping and receiving. I was responsible for what was coming in and going out of the building. I was responsible for allocating product and managing inventory space, spoke with sales in shipping and buyers in receiving, managed trucks and floor space, signed for product coming in and out,  dealt with returns, helping associates on a daily basis with questions, being told I'm responsible for people, their hrs, and making sure they know what to do, and do it. Yet I'm still not even given a title of lead or they pay that comes with any title change. Management would get upset if i complained the empoyee's weren't listening, even though it was hard for me to expect people to listen when I Had the same title as them. In the end people started to understand that listening to me was beneficial for workflow. Over all not a good long term investment unless your planning on spending 5+years doing things you should be paid far more to do and are a real boss charmer.

What are the hours like?
- signed up for full time and got an average of 33 hours a week
Pay?
- $17 an hour with very small raises yearly. You often end up doing work for others after you are finished with your area because they cannot keep a steady pace and stay busy. I was doing double the work of someone who made $27 an hour!! Apparently if you work there for 20 years you get your way and make way more money to do way less work.
Management?
- good luck talking to them. Anytime I brought up a problem to them they brushed it off like I never said anything. They are terrible with communication aswell. They also favor certain people that work in the building and often give them easy light duty jobs and let them get away with things no one else can.

Overall, I’d recommend staying far away from this place if you want to stay a sane person. This place will work you to death and not even think twice about you. The company claims they make so much money but they never invest any of it back into the company. No a/c in the hot summers while everyone is complaining about it. Their solution; buy floor fans that barely cool the place down at all and buy everyone sweat rags. Corporate also stated that we were the highest performing dc in the entire company but did not treat us like it.

The worst place ever to work! Never work here! They can't be trusted, they are manipulative, they will tell you they will give you a raise for another position, let you work it and never give you a raise and don't pay you for the time you worked the position and give it to someone else. If they need you in a position they won't let you go to another position. Management is horrible they allow pest employees to bother the hard working employees. They overwork the employees that actually care to do a good job and surround them with low than average employees. They don't care nor listen to their employees. I was a material handler a month ago and work there for 3 years this is not a ordinary material handler position you also have to work machine while picking up pallets off the floor and putting them away with your forklift. They under pay you and don't respect you. They can't keep a full staff of forklift drivers and put 3 forklift drivers jobs on one person. They lie, they take away when they use to give you food, they take way your bonus. This is one of if not the worst place I worked for ever. They don't discipline problem employees and the give manager position to unqualified people. They bully you and don't care about safety even though they say they do. DONT EVER WORK HERE, if your an on time, hard working, respectable person they don't care and that's why they will never get fully staffed.

If you enjoy a super fast-paced environment and change keeps you on your toes, you will enjoy this company.

There have been many sleepless nights, sometimes even whole days of no sleep to meet deadlines. With phone calls, Teams messages and endless emails at all hours, everything is always due immediately.  There is no downtime to think or plan, only act. 

Day in and day out you are told “this will be the last big change and the last big sprint and then everything will settle down” in 8 years, it never was the last time. Nothing ever settled down.

The constant change, like having 4 bosses in 2 years,  can make it hard to make any advancements,  and you might wonder if you’re going to have a job one day to the next. 

But despite, and perhaps even because of the constant chaos, the people who work here are great. Almost every coworker is super hardworking and kind, always willing to lend a hand, a compliment or an ear.  There is a satisfaction coming from being part of an ever-evolving, growing company. And it creates a culture. Not the one marketing claims it to be, but a “we are all in this in the trenches together” kind of culture that is actually really nice!

I started at this company before it became what it is today. I shaped and molded up and coming employees and brought out the potential in others to help us achieve a one minded facility looking forward to growth and bringing forth a brighter future for this mom and pop organization turned billion dollar corporation. 

The unfortunate truth is they have become tainted with the ideas of failed management. The idea that Automotive Manufacturing somehow supersedes Chemical Manufacturing, (which they are actively producing), is astonishing.

Talent is a facade for an organization that belittles the brilliant and bows to the insignificant. 

If a business model was a Las Vegas bet, with little odds in favor of outcome, this is the place to take your risk with little expectations of a payout.

Put in your mightiest effort. Transform an entire facility with your mind and next level ideas. Yet, enjoy being squashed for your background not fitting their agenda’s. 

This is not veteran friendly. This is a place to have your ideas go to the top unnoticed. For your intelligence to be tested yet hampered.

Work on your pace. That means a few ppl will do a lot and a few very little and the rest middle. There is favoritism. Some newbies get easier jobs than seniors. For the most part, ppl are friendly and helpful. 45 hrs./ mostly. 7 to 530 usally. but can be 1;30. Women get preferential treatment. Easier assignments, more generous leaving early or showing late or not at all. But , they do point out eventually. Newbies have it VERY easy 1 st 2 weeks. The real lazy usually last a month.   It's warm in summer but not where you sweat. There's a lot of  fans and i haven't worked up a sweat there in 20 yrs. Winter is warmish. light jacket. front by dock doors does get cold but not bad. All in all , I enjoyed my job and most ppl. 
Finally,  if you get on the wrong side of a boss. ( embarrass them, make them look weak, ask questions, challenge their ideas)  even unintentionally, they dont forget. And when they have their excuse, boom, your gone. Even, if your a long time good safe worker.  

What is the best part of working at the company?
Shift hours sometimes. People on shift 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Management. "Oee"
Some management are laid back others are way to overpowered. Work dayshift because nightshift gets the shaft all the time. If you work midnite shift then prepare to be always wrong and always have to clean up after dayshift

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Work with machines that breakdown all the time. And have a technician department that can't fix anything but the technician supervisor thinks the techs are over worked. Most work maybe 2 or 4 hours of actual work in a 12 hour shift

What is the best part of working at the company?
There is no BEST part of working for this company. They have a disrespectful management team. They don't respect their employees.  They talk to you like your less than a human being.  I advise against even considering applying for any position at this company. At least as far as the GREENSBORO operation. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Being disrespected as a person.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The culture is ok amongst the employees.  It's the management team that is totally disrespectful.  The work environment is stressful due to the management team.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Working a 12hr shift and only taking 1 40 minute break is unacceptable.

Hardest part was having to leave after getting covid I loved working there a d would give anything to go back ! Management was top shelf and each department had its own lead which could get a little confusing when one lead tells u one way and the other dept lead wants different... no one to go to to seek the clarification ... I definitely recommend this as a place of employment if you like redundancy and being in a fast paced warehouse environment

I used to build pallets full of boxes of motor oil shipments. Job is always inside and that’s a good part. Very easy job but the manager always expects more when there isn’t more. Not easy to get promoted at all and they like to find ways to make you look bad. The managers I had were very rude. I wouldn’t use the company WiFi here because then they can see everything you do on your phone. Company carries good benefits it’s just too bad they don’t wanna get people to where they need to be. Rather hire all the temps that don’t even stay.
