Pros

The pay started off fine, however has not kept up with current market value. In many cases you will be ~20k under market value. Bonus is alright, but again can't compete with the market. Some of the people are great and exceptional, however their voice is often drowned out in the name of "Company Culture"

Cons

There is no easy place to begin. First and foremost, when employees were attempting to leave Liz began applying legal pressure to companies hiring people to attempt to scare away any offers being extended. This happened between the legal team getting involved, letters being sent and phone calls being made to the leadership of new companies. This has happened more than once. MANY of the Glassdoor reviews are 'fake' reviews left by HR employees to make Uline seem like a healthy place to work. Please keep this in mind when browsing reviews that are listed on this website. When people are announcing they are leaving their managers will gaslight them and say things like "Work from home is career suicide", "You are just going to make less money and be miserable". This does not speak for all leadership however, some people are great and make wise decisions. Pay has been lagging behind average market value for quite some time. Making a job change with no job title change will often come with a 20k raise. Work from home is always a firm NO. It does not matter how sick you are or if your family is needing assistance or the roads are so dangerous with snow that there are dozens of car crashes on the way to work. Under no circumstances are you able to do the exact same job from home to prevent possible harm to yourself or others. Leadership will say they do not watch the time clock (yes, a salaried position where you punch in/out at a time clock every day). However this is a lie, there is a required 45 hour minimum to prevent your manager from breathing down your neck and a 47 hour minimum if you even are considering scoring higher than a 3 on your performance review and get a well deserving promotion. There is no paid leave for maternity / paternity. If you need to take bereavement you are limited to 3 days and it must be someone in your immediate family, meaning if your cousin passes you will have to take time off to grieve. Many teams are under heavy scrutiny enduring hour by hour micromanagement. In cubicles you are restricted to five personal items, but if these personal items do not follow the 'company image' you will be required to take it home (eg. small figurine, a picture frame with a cross on it) When senior leadership holds town halls and addresses questions that have been asked hard questions they will laugh it off "haha there's that work from home question again... moving on". There is more than enough evidence that employees are struggling to maintain enthusiasm for the culture they must maintain where it is truly baffling that there is questions as to why people leave in droves when a new opportunity arrives at a new company.
