What I liked
What i liked about working at amazon fulfillment center was the people I was working with, my managers, the task, the hours, and the pay. So Yes, everything!
What I wish was different
Everything is fine the way it is in my opinion
Advice
This job requires you to get lots of sleep, eat lots of food, and just take care of your body all around. Many say it’s a hard job and you get worked like a slave but everyone should know how far is too far. I loved it and hopefully I can go back one day

What I liked
It was a high energy, busy, competitive environment. It gave me knowledge about the grassroots of a large organization.
What I wish was different
I wish it had more to do with my career but it was the summer after freshman year so it’s not necessary to already have an internship for then.
Advice
Although manual labor, it’s humbling to see how hard others have to work to get the job you want done.

What I liked
I was working with some high school friends and all my new coworkers were around my age or older.
What I wish was different
I wish I had started earlier in the summer.
Advice
Do not take VTO (voluntary time off) unless you absolutely need to. You can, but then your pay won’t be as good as it could be.

Fulfillment Warehouse Associate
May - August 2019 • Waukegan, IL
What I liked
I liked that the environment was friendly.
What I wish was different
The work was way too much stress on our bodies. The boxes should have been lifted with 2 people (Team Lift) and we were required to do it alone.
Also, I worked night shift. HR wasn’t present during my shift and would never answer the phone during the day time when I called. I could never get in touch with them.
Advice
One piece of advice is to try to enjoy the overall experience. Try and get to know your coworkers and think positive. The job can be tough but if you are optimistic, it can be a positive work environment.

What I liked
It was very hands on, and it was a very physical job. It is very fast paced and you are constantly busy, that helps the time go by faster.
What I wish was different
I wish the hours for the shifts were different, I wish I could work more morning shifts instead of night shifts.
Advice
Be prepared to be at a very physical, fast paced job. Make sure you also wear the appropriate shoes for the job, there is a lot of walking involved.
