Pros

Fine, if it’s not your main source of income and you know what you’re walking into. Pay is decent, but hours depend on volume and your willingness to go out of your way to work at other stations. They require 6 day work weeks during the holidays which isn’t too bad, because it usually also comes with pay incentives. However, most employees are not made aware when they are hired.

Cons

Don’t work here if you plan on making your whole living here… Fast-paced, intense physical labor with no breaks. (I’ve gotten sent home for stoping briefly for water/food after going non-stop for hours.) Communication is terrible. They will cut your hours and pay for the potential of very little profit. I’ve watched them force managers out of positions with as little as two weeks to figure something else out. I have also watched them seemingly ignore problems with a manager who was known to be inappropriate with women. He still works for the company. They have promised pay incentives and then attempted to not follow through on that promise (employees had to threaten quitting and lawsuits). They will hire you at full-time status, fail to give you full-time hours, then force you into part-time ($2/hr pay difference).

Pros

Beat the traffic to and from work. You get a combination of active work walking around the warehouse and office work at a computer.

Cons

When express and ground merged, some of the admins decided they weren't going to do any of the new express tasks that needed to be done. Management either didn't seem to notice or did not care as they never intervened or addressed this disparity. A coworker with my same job title was in the air conditioned office all day, working on tasks that were not a priority while I was getting slammed with work that was required for my position. If that is what management wanted, that is fine. But it was never addressed to the team. Management doesn't address or care about these things as long as someone does it.
