    Pay on different shifts

    So what you're saying is a person who is 21 and has worked at the DC for 2 years lets say, shouldn't have to do as much as someone who has been here for 20 years? I believe the person who puts in 20 years deserves higher pay and less work. They literally dedicated themselves to the company so...

    Black Plastic Pallets

    we were told it was all DC's were doing it this way, then we found out it wasn't true. Years ago when they first started coming in with freight we were actually talking about going to those plastic pallets because for the most part they are lighter than wooden skids plus its kinda hard to break...

    Pay on different shifts

    So you are ok with a company like this having there team members work harder for less pay? I'm really trying to understand your logic. We have pretty close to equivalent staffing throughout, however they constantly flex home night shifts more than us. Granted at one time we were more of a...

    Pay on different shifts

    B1 specifically does 70%. How is that a better work life balance for B1? We work 4 days and have 3 off while the weekend works 3 days and has 4 off. Sounds like the weekly shifts do more, so they should get paid more, I have kids that I get on the weekends so I don't really have the option to...

    Pay on different shifts

    We recently had an all team member meeting and at the end someone asked when we would get a raise being that we hadn't had one in 2 years. We were told that they don't see a raise coming any time soon. What I find odd though is I work B1, all the other shifts in the past year got raises in shift...

    Black Plastic Pallets

    Are any other DC's out there not aloud to use the black plastic pallets? All freight that comes into our DC with those pallets is taken off and put onto the wood pallets. I remember when they first came out we were talking about going to those pallets but for some reason we are being told not to...

    Raise

    Trolling? I simply gave my feedback on statements that were made. You are the one who commented "Someone should tell the other 194 countries experiencing massive inflation whos really causing it". Maybe you can give your 2 cents on what you think the cause is, or maybe not leave smart ass...

    Raise

    Seems like Russia is doing quite well at the moment. Maybe everyone is blaming the President because of all his sanctions they put on Russia, followed by sanctions from other world leaders. Was the world economy doing bad before this? I saw it doing really good, look at how the stock market was...

    Raise

    I'm on B1, most senior team in our DC and we are treated the worst it seems. Getting 12 transfers next week, for what reason I have no clue.

    EDP question...modern PO's

    A modern PO has a source code of 1000 and is only 6 digits versus 7 digits with other PO's and is used by vendors when adding last minute products onto trailers. Yes it is supposed to be fail safe but not always the case. The problem we have is that when processing external damage, we use a...

    Raise

    Seemed to be part of there strategy, hire too many workers so they don't have to pay OT. We went from 40 to 100 TM's in my department. Now each day we have to stop work because we keep going over plan. Warehouse is too full so we ship freight to other DC's only to have it shipped back. New team...

    EDP question...modern PO's

    What is the hold up with adding modern PO's to the external damage process?? We keep getting told that it will get fixed but it's been months and no change. Basically we aren't getting credit for processing modern PO's. Is this a headquarters thing or what? Seems like someone isn't doing there job.

    Hiring Too Many Warehouse Workers

    Are other DC’s seeing large amounts of new hires? Inbound alone on B1 went from 40 to 112 workers! Plans sit around 70,000 each shift because we don’t have room to store freight. On top of that, we set plans each period, if we start pacing over then they tell us to stop receiving until after...

    We've been taking in so much freight we have nowhere to put it.

    My DC went from 40 to 90 people per department, with new hires still coming in. After fall season, the OT went away like usual but like other DC’s, we have no room to put anything. More and more reserve comes in but we aren’t sending it out. We’re told that it’s all freight that was supposed to...

    Exhaust Fans in Warehouse

    Can someone explain why headquarters in Minneapolis is in charge of turning on and off exhaust fans in DC’s hundreds of miles away??? It’s a heat wave advisory and they are mandating the stupid masks again. How about we suck the stagnant air out instead of just blowing everything around in the DC??

    Masks and overheating

    You guys don’t do the mask exemption? Hell most of us don’t wear masks at all, haven’t for months. Even a few OM’s don’t wear them.

    Multiple pallet bands required

    We were told headquarters is now requiring that we put bands on top 3 layers as well as bottom layer of freight. Any other DC’s get this change?

    Archived Working IW trailers on the dock...again

    If you’re referring to SOM Bill, yes lol. They started it last night and I think they got it done right before the end of shift today. Had 6 people working it including Dan towards the end.

    Archived Working IW trailers on the dock...again

    The Inbound SOM decided that we will now be working IW trailers on the dock, something we haven’t done for 14 years! It takes less than 3 hours to work these in ART, now they are putting 3 team members on an IW that will take them about a day or more to do. How is this efficient or logical? We...
