Awful

Bad place to work. Pay sucks. Management sucks. They suck up your whole life and spit you out. Micro managed. Unrealistic expectations. Avoid at all costs.

It's what you make of it

Lots of long hours which makes work/life balance a challenge. Very demanding physically for order fillers so turnover is high. Good experience and possibility for growth if hard worker.
