Great place to work
Customer Service Representative/Store Manager (Former Employee), Pickering, ON – September 17, 2012
It was a retail work place where the most enjoyable part was talking to people, understanding their needs and trying to solve their problems by providing them with the best solution to their needs. Management and coworkers were very cooperative in every respect in order to increase profitability and productivity of the Store

Started off as a sales associate, worked up to store manager and to franchisee within 9 months, and a year later brought another location. Great place, made excellent contacts. Upper Management, Head Office were NEVER helpful, had to do everything by ourselves

Ungrateful culture
Supervisor, Business Operations (Current Employee), Concord, ON – June 14, 2012
Pros: decent pay for pt
Cons: unnecessary stress, and no growth potential.
As a PT Operations (preload) supervisor, my days are never easy or can I help them get either. Little to no support from managers, also.

If you have staffing issues, you better find a way to do more than 2 jobs at the same time in less than 5hrs (every job is designed for more than 5hrs of work). To hire, you need your managers consent. They won't – more... give it, because they've got you to pick up the pieces. If you can't, than quit.

The numbers are never given to you, because you either find them on the spot, or the next day. Therefore, you can't really plan for anything.

The culture is "dog eat dog". Demanding, fast paced, and little to no rewarding program. As for your promotion/bonus/anything good, it depends on who is above you. Better get lucky or get out! – less

Mail Sorter (Former Employee), Ottawa, ON – May 11, 2012
Cons: shortest break ever. only 10 mins in a 6 hr shift
over night shift, physically demanding as you constantly lift heavy items. fun co workers but really harsh supervisors. i learnt how to control my temper and stay calm. hardest part of the job was lifting those heavy parcels and items.

Good Enviroment to grow in and flexible work schedules
Package Handler (Former Employee), Chicago, IL – May 23, 2013
Pros: short hrs and great benifits
Cons: short breaks and no heating or air for climate changes
I learned alot about safety during my time there and i enjoyed workin wit my coworkers . They have very strict rules but the shifts are very flexible only up to five hrs for parttime but only a ten min break. Involves alot of hard labor lifting up to 70lbs and however the weather is outside it feels almost exactly the same there. Exampl : if its 70 – more... degrees outside it will be about 80 inside and no air conditioning or if its 20 degrees it will be about 25 degrees no heat. – less
