The answer

It is not permissible to work for this company due to the assistance it provides in wrongdoing by carrying boxes of wine bottles. This contradicts Allah's saying: "And cooperate in righteousness and piety, but do not cooperate in sin and aggression." Furthermore, it is an indignity for a Muslim to work in such a lowly profession under disbelievers. This work must be abandoned, except in cases of necessity to cover basic expenses, in which case one must strive to find another permissible job.
