packer for amazon

June 2019 • Sacramento, CA

What I liked

I enjoyed the long, hot ten hour shifts.

What I wish was different

I wish there were more fans inside of the warehouse. I also wish the learning ambassadors were more professional. (Considering they are chosen by management - I think they are a poor representation of Amazon’s standards.)

Advice

Day shift makes 15.16/h & night shift has differential pay - 16.15/h. Sign up for nights, wear comfortable shoes, don’t lock your knees, and stay hydrated. (You will be standing in the same spot for 10 solid hours)

Grocery Store Bagger

May - August 2020 • Rocky River, OH

What I liked

I liked working at my own pace and being able to help others during COVID-19, and make a difference during such a difficult time, even something as simple as picking their groceries.

What I wish was different

I wish there was an opportunity for me to continue to work this job while in school.

Advice

I would say it is okay to get stressed by one cannot let the stress get to them, and taking it one day at a time is the best mindset. I made many mistakes at first while learning about the store and where items are, and I definitely thought I would never be able to navigate around successfully but I eventually knew it like the back of my hand.

Warehouse Associate

July 2020 • Chester, VA

What I liked

I like the hourly pays and benefits that comes with the job in which a big benefit that affects me mostly are the employee discounts I can get on technology, shoes, and more. I like how Amazon is so broadly considerate when it comes to employees because they provide and act differently when donating to Black Lives Matter, provide COVID masks, free T-shirts, pain medicine vending machines, and much more that normal businesses wouldn't have.

What I wish was different

I wished I had been available to more training when I first started because I was given a trainer who was inexperienced in the role I applied for. Also, I do know it's a big warehouse, but I would decrease the gap in the interpersonal relationships between employees and managers.

Advice

I would suggest knowing your limits physically and mentally because it honestly is a lot of hard work but for a decent pay. Always ask questions even the ones you are sure of because there could be something you've misinterpreted. I would suggest apply if you have your own car.
