Pros

Good benefits, great co-workers. The job is stressful, but fun. Live nursery specialist requires great knowledge of plants as you're helping people plan and plant their yard/garden. I loved working outside, but it's not for everyone.

Cons

Having to deal with new managers and ASMs who want you to do it THEIR way when your way works, and who take a dislike to you and treat you judgmentally regardless of the great job you're doing. Physical labor intensive, outside in heat and cold. You have some control over ordering live goods, but a huge amount is just pushed in and you have to figure out what to do with it and try to keep it alive. Meanwhile you get blamed for the shrink and losses.

Pros

For being non CDL, the job pays pretty decent. I worked there for 2 years and was making a little over $14 an hour. As a driver you also get to basically work at your own pace and can take stops as needed (bathroom, food, etc.)

Cons

There are days where you come in and there are a lot of deliveries and a lot of driving to do. You basically never know when you'll be able to get off for sure. We were allowed to leave or stay longer once deliveries were done. Sometimes you would be done before noon, other occasions I had worked as late as 8:30pm. Management also does not seem to really care about employees. Also, if you make any sort of safety violation big or small, prepare to be fired. Even if you never had any write ups before that.

Pros

Great company to work for!

Cons

This particular store only promotes people they like on a personal level. U can be good at your job but if your not friends with management, you can give up ever being promoted here.
