Working at WIS International:

At first, I loved working at WIS. The pay was decent, there was the option of benefits and the opportunity to grow in the company. We get to go to different locations and inventory all kinds of products. The problem is their goal counts for new employees. It took me months to finally get the appropriate counts that they wanted because of how they were training me. Honestly, if they were teaching me how they wanted things done consistantly and didn't put me on tags that were considered "hard" by even seasoned employees, it wouldn't have been so bad. I wasn't counting fast enough, so the number of jobs I was allowed on decreased. Now I barely make anything at all. While it's a great job with lots of awesome people and interesting experiences, the pay is terrible. I wouldn't suggest this to be anyone's singular source of income.

Wis International Salary and Benefits:

Starting pay is $7.75. If you have to help out after the inventory, the pay drops down to $7.25. You also make $7.25 every hour after the first hour you're on the company van, as well as every hour before the last hour on your way back. I don't know anything about vacation time, as far as I know there aren't any bonuses. You get 7-14 dollars for meal reimbursements for overnight trips. They also offer a menial health insurance plan, which is better than nothing.
