Poor management from the supervisors, low pay with no reason to stick around after being trained on some of the heavier equipment and becoming proficient with them. No real growth opportunities. They are happy to train you in other roles and in the other divisions, but they wont actually move your pay up according to the training you've actually received as they will tout to you beforehand when talking about their "Career Ladder". The "Career Ladder" the place implements is one that incentives people to engage in dangerous and unsafe activity, due to the fact that the main way to progress on it is tied directly to their efficiency system. The efficiency system they track you with is broken holding workers to an unfair standard depending on what role they are assigned, with some roles being more lucrative then others due to ineffective tracking standards. To give an example of this, a person pulling a cart for an order will always have less efficiency than a person working on a pack line, even if they are both doing the same amount of work. Which means those who are more routinely assigned to work the pack line, will make more money then those who are assigned carts, though that is just one example. The company wont adjust the efficiency system, not even when they implement new procedures that hinder worker efficiency due to the upper managements beliefs that they can "Tighten the Belt" in other areas, but those theoretical areas are never actually found, nor are they implementing changes that would "Tighten the belt". Every piece of equipment in the place is outdated, in disrepair or outright broken, but the company refuses to pay for repairs, replacements or upgrades. Meaning , for example, walkie riders are used that have faulty wiring systems that cause you to randomly lose power and drift with no service brake. Many of the Motorola RF units are held together by actual duct tape with many of the triggers and the outer casings cracked and broken. As well as the RF units constantly losing connection, with some areas of the warehouse being more troublesome then others. And the workers themselves are
a mix of toxic exploitative people, and minorities who are exploited by the company due to their own desperation, ignorance, and fear of trying to find better work. The company is cheap, and it breeds an environment that only the desperate and the exploitative can succeed in.
