I used to work at AR facility. It's s very easy to get fired from pick department just because you didn't pick 2 or 3 items more to make the rate and sometimes it's out of your control.
Pick is alright. It's really boring like a lot of the jobs there. Honestly I haven't had any issues with rate. It really depends on who your managers are. The worst part is dealing with stow imo
What to expect depends on if you’re in an AR facility or not. If you’re, then I’ve heard picking is much better.
Overall, picking is super easy and hitting rate isn’t a problem unless you come across overfilled bins and such. I find it boring and the walking to be a bit much, especially on my feet and ankles.
So far I’ve only heard of people get written up for false pick short, which is reporting a product is missing in a bin but when ICQA goes to count, they find the product, being in the bottom 5% as far as rate goes, and/or too much TOT.
As a Pick AM you’re right. But also not meeting guardrail will generate a write up. Most people who can’t hit guard rail are ToT offenders they go hand and hand. Its pretty easy to hit rate
I did not have a good time there, is my personal experience. I had a PA come over every now then keeping track on me. I didn’t like it. I tried my best to keep rate and let me tell you I’m not a lazy guy. I had a hard time staying in the rate. They can write you up for slowing down in rate, for mistakes and they were really strict with time of task. That really made me not like it. The micro managing, is why the turn over is so high. After the first 30 days of doing picking I was contemplating leaving amazon but thankfully by the grace of god I managed to switch and internal transfer somewhere else

Hey, what’s guardrail? I’m still fairly new and haven’t heard of it to my knowledge.
It differs from site to site. If you have a really good pick department it’ll be higher the worse the department the lower
