Pros

Wages Bonuses PTO after 90 days OT available if wanted Promotions from within. ( I started as a warehouse worker and was promoted to lead then assistant receiving manager in under 4 years, as were many others I worked with) Chance to relocate

Cons

I can't find many cons about working at Uline (and I was fired after nearly 6 years) The hours could always be better, the moral between shifts was always a little rocky and seemed to be fueled by dept managers and leads alike. Otherwise not many day to day things to complain about. However, I was fired after six dedicated years, moving my way up the ladder from warehouse to lead to eventual manger for failing a random urine screen. In 6 years I never had an accident, incident, complaint, write up or any other derogatory remake on my record. I was less then 3 weeks away from achieving perfect attendance for that year. I failed a urine test and own that completely, it was my decision to engage in illicit drugs, but I never came to work high intoxicated and excelled at what I did. I was thrown to the side and fired without a second thought. And they "care" about their employees right?

Pros

Great pay and benefits, the company as a whole takes very good care of their employees. Yearly profit sharing bonus is a huge plus, and the company continues to grow every single year.

Cons

Micromanagement city, zero career path or talent growth for eager employees. Lots of mandatory overtime. Many of the leads/managers don't treat their employees well and are condescending.

Pros

Fast paced and focused. If you want a work environment that does not rest, where the focus is clearly on the customer, all day, every day, you can't really beat Uline.

Cons

While it's hard to argue "why" it should be done the way the original owners (who have built the Company from humble beginnings to it's nearly US $3BB (yes, that's billion) in sales revenues) want it done; if you absolutely can NOT stand to be completely estranged of any decision making whatsoever, this is not the place to build your career.
