    I've been at an FC for 4 years. It's warehouse work. It's fast paced and it can be taxing on your body depending on what position you have. You get decent pay, benefits on day 1, you get paid time and unpaid time and start earning vacation day 1. You also get tuition assistance after a year and classes available if you're considering moving up

    The only benefit I see here is that you get your foot in the door and two you get to do shifts when delivery gig services are over for the night.
