Pros
The work shift was convenient. The pay was adequate at the distribution center I worked at. The managers aren't breaking a sweat at all.
Cons
There is no air conditioning on the "dry side". The pace was a running pace in order to make quotas. There was a lot of sweating (soaked shirts and trousers). It may take 7 to 10 years to advance into management because there is little turn-over in management. There is a lot of turn-over with the regular hourlies, though. Unfortunately, this is one of the areas that Wal-Mart tries to save money so they can pass the savings onto the customer. Each employee is squeezed.
