What is the best part of working at the company?
The best part of working at the company was the people — especially those who continued to show up, support each other, and do great work despite the pressures around them. There’s a genuine sense of camaraderie among the team, and that connection made the experience meaningful.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The biggest stressor was the unpredictability. The company promoted stability, growth, and long‑term development, but internal decisions didn’t always support that. Roles, priorities, and even headcount could change abruptly, which created an environment where it was hard to plan, focus, or feel secure.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The best part of the culture is the people — they look out for each other and build real camaraderie. At the same time, the environment can be stressful because leaders and employees often have to manage around the owner’s reactions, which limits open communication. The culture tends to be shaped more by avoiding conflict than by collaboration, but the team’s resilience and support for one another stand out.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
A typical day involved managing my responsibilities independently, coordinating with teammates, and adapting to shifting priorities as they came down from leadership. Most of the work required staying focused, self‑directed, and ready to adjust quickly when expectations changed. Collaboration with peers was usually positive, and much of the day‑to‑day success depended on the support we provided each other.

Do yourself a favor and run to anywhere but here. You will NEVER see gratitude for your hard work, your "raises" are a joke, HR will feed you a cheery line of bull one day and act like you're the dirt on the bottom of their shoes the next. They push loyal hard working employees to tears on a daily basis. Supervisors are meerly there for looks while  their leads run around doing everything with nothing in return. Employees are to scared to stand up for themselves because they have been told repeatedly that they are replaceable. Your shift can push out millions a week but the min you ask for a raise it's "not good for the company at this time". Oh the favoritism too is unreal but is most certainly there and in full force. Not a single person is treated equally on any level. Don't think you can talk to management or HR confidentiality either,  in about 10 minutes the entire warehouse knows your business. They do give a hyvee gift card at Thanksgiving and a $25 bonus per year (full-time employees) they've worked there at Christmas. Sometimes you get a 45min lunch from some pizza place or chick-fil-a. HR will deny my claims and make it seem like a very welcoming and family friendly work place. Heed my warnings friends, you will see the true colors of Lynco if after all this you still take a chance on them. 

When I started working with Lynco, I was painted a picture of a fun and exciting work environment.  However, after a few years of working here I have come to the realization that it is not as great as it seems.  The atmosphere is extremely negative with constant paranoia that you are going to get dragged into meetings just to get ridiculed or yelled at.  With all key decisions being made by one person it is hard to ever feel empowered, and instead you constantly feel degraded and belittled.  Unless you work in one specific department, you will always be getting told that you are holding up everyone else. 

The ownership team is like Jekyll and Hyde, however, unless you're in sales you only get to enjoy the presence of Mr. Hyde. It is a daily occurrence in which someone will get paged over the intercom just to get yelled at or be part of an audience for someone getting yelled at. This type of environment makes it difficult for the departments to work cohesively as it creates a constant since of animosity towards each other.  

Unless you want to be overpaid to work as a glorified pencil pusher who gets no respect I would suggest looking for jobs elsewhere.

This company offers generous wages both hourly and salary depending on the position, but this is done for a reason. The president and other upper level management do this because of how awful it is to work here and how much trouble they go through trying to retain employees. If this job paid any less, people would leave much sooner and more often. The turnover rate here is ridiculously high and a number have people have taken pay cuts to go elsewhere. Try not to become to close to coworkers because they leave at alarming high rates. This place is toxic, poorly managed, stressful, not rewarding and draining. No bonuses, forget about raises, your reward is a free catered lunch MAYBE 2 times a year while you hear about how high the revenues have increased every year. Do yourself a favor and do not apply here as you will regret it a month in and will be searching for new jobs like everyone else here. Hoping this saves someone from the daily headaches of Lynco Products.

Owner is a mid age man who throws tantrums. It's his way or the highway thinking. He's right at all times. The man below him says he will take care of a problem then acts dumb saying "I don't know what your talking about." The shipping supervisor jumps down his employees throats for talking then has a conversation himself a minute later (not work related). They allow 2nd shifters to torture people (drama) and do nothing to stop it. Besides terminate the hard worker that's there to do the job. While the employees making problems keeps there's. It's a dog eat dog world at lynco products. The worse company I've ever worked for when it comes to management and there employees. Plus 1st and 2nd hate eachother yet they have to work together. Not people friendly what so ever. The job I had tho I really enjoyed but the people you had to deal with daily made the day terrible.

There are several different departments at Lynco Products, I only worked in shipping and picking. Picking included grabbing an order placed by a customer and knowing by shelf number where to get the merchandise. You had to fill shopping carts with the customers orders and place them in line for the shippers. The shippers had to grab the cart and lay the entire order out on the table. Then they had to print price tags and price the product if the customer requested. Then the merchandise was packaged and packed into boxes and put on the line to be sent to out to the business. I loved this job, but had to move and couldn't keep it. The worst and best part about it for me was that the schedule was set which meant events planned during your shift, you had to miss. But it also made it easier to plan events for the future.

There is a culture that comes with a bunch of old sales guys coming together to create a business. If you are into that, then more power to you. My main problem was taking on an account that I wasn't actually managing, and the manager of that account only had the interest in corporate in mind. My job was to work with the lower management, and it involved a lot of cleaning up messes that would not have been made if there was better communication and consideration for that lower management. All sales and service reps are independent so no expenses are covered by company.

The job is very easy and they train pretty well. Anytime I had questions I could just ask someone that was around and everyone was pretty helpful. It is hot in the summer, but its heated in the winter so it's not too bad. 

The managers are easy to get along with if you come to work everyday and do your job. They care about hitting shift/company goals so they want to make sure you have good attendance. Anytime I had a question, I could always ask a manager and they would tell me or show me how to do something. 

The coworkers were probably my favorite part of the job. Everyone was nice and I felt like I was a part of a team.

This place is a joke. In the interview, they tell you some overtime through the week, but hardly any Saturdays. This is a lie, you work most Saturdays. They don't post overtime til the last minute. Sometimes, they don't even post it, they'll text you to tell you. I got a text message about overtime, while at the hospital with a relative, on a weekend. That is not professional at all. The owner changes the rules constantly. The way he talks to his management is a disgrace. 1st shift and 2nd shift work together and the aisles get so crowded, you actually get less done. There's too much overlapping time with the shifts.

A typical day is walking in, grabbing a shopping list and cart, and going shopping i.e. picking, then I go home.
The management is pretty poor. The supervisors are simply unable to do basic communication like addressing me by my name. Even accusing me of doing something wrong, without even knowing if I did it or not, isn’t beneath them. There’s a lot of bias at play when it comes to them.
As for the work culture, I would reckon it’s lesser than the average Walmart. But it also depends on shift and location.
