Pros

Benefits for part-time workers, career advancement oppotunities, relocation opportunities, strong business model and brand. A good way to get your foot in the door and to start a career with a good company with all kinds of leadership and technical opportunites

Cons

Too focused on tenure at the expense of rewarding people based on their contributions. Compensation and pay too structured, puts a focus on how long you have been sitting in your seat. Holidays can be a real drag and when bad weather hits around that time all bets are off and you better be flexible. Some long term managers and employees can get stuck in their ways

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.
