Pros

Great opportunities to start your career and gain immediately management/supervisory responsibility. If you are willing to relocate the opportunities for growth and advancement are endless. A great teamwork atmosphere with lots of support.

Cons

Expectations and demands are unreasonable at times and difficult to push back to say no to. Pay is OK, but when time worked is factored in, there is clearly a gap. Significant struggles as key leadership moved on or was let go to restructure with and American team. Business is at the mercy of the B2C world and as e-commerce continues to grow and malls become a thing of the past the organization will struggle to adapt

Pros

Work here if you hate yourself and have no life

Cons

Work life balance does not exist in this company. Oftentimes, you are working in excess of 50 or even 60 hours a week for a measly salary. There are no overtime paid or banked hours if you're a manager. The way this company operates is purely unethical and borderline legal. The drivers oftentimes work in excess of 12+ hours a day, jeopardizing and violating safety regulations. Many times, you are working an evening shift untill 2:00am and are expected to work early the next morning at 7am, even though Alberta legislation require a minimum of 8 hours of rest in between shifts. Upper management does not care about anyone or anything other than profit; it is an unwritten rule that you lie, cheat, and deceive your customers and associates in order to get a higher RPH. This company is so petty that managers cheat their own associates, who are already making minimum wage, on their timesheet a few minutes here and there for the name of profit! I wouldn't even recommend my worst enemy to work here.
