Pros

As an engineer, there is tremendous freedom to try, fail, and truly grown as an engineer. Freedom in schedule with the ability to work late or early, per communication.

Cons

No true level as an engineer. Growth, in terms of title, is not there.

Pros

The work is easy; it's a good entry-level position for people looking for work.

Cons

The pay is not competitive, compared to other warehouses in the area; the hourly rate is on the low end. They offer benefits, but with a low base hourly rate, the benefits are too expensive to afford. The hours are insane, mandatory overtime is common, and you will be working 6-7 days in a row if upper management decides it's necessary. Opportunities for upward career movement are few and far between. You will likely be stuck in the same role for 2-3 years before being considered for a promotion. The team of managers there does not seem unified; they don't even seem like they enjoy working there. The managers/supervisors are unsatisfied in their roles, and it spreads to everyone else, creating poor morale amongst all the employees. Management also has high turnover; in the time I worked there, I saw 4 different plant managers get hired. Constant changes are being made, which is frustrating because the processes will change every 3-4 months. There is a lot of work to be done to fix the company culture at SA. I met lots of great hardworking people, but it's a shame the company chooses to overwork and underpay their high performers. During my final months working there, I felt completely burnt out. Expressing any concerns to management is met with being blown off or being pushed towards resigning/terminated.
