Benefits gets you in the door. Seniority locks the door behind you.

Business Outlook

Pros

Benefits are great due to union negotiation.

Cons

Your schedule is based on seniority. In order to get good benefits you sacrifice hourly pay. Management does not care about you whatsoever. Management does not upkeep anything (equipment, parking lot, yard, dock, bathrooms etc.) They break their word time and time again. And spend ridiculous amount of money on unnecessary things but tell you it's for the worker's benefit.

Pros

You can make really good money here and the drivers can be really cool

Cons

Zero work life balance, and getting promoted is about who you know(or blow) not what you know. You'll make pretty good money, but be in a financially abusive relationship with them. No time to spend the money you earn because you're working your tail off 14-16 hour days making SALARY pay. By the end of your 16 hour day youre making less than minimum wage to be yelled at by drivers, bosses, customers and coworkers. And God forbid you tell your bosses about it, they'll give you the cold shoulder and ignore you until you're a shell of the person you were. Its all take a no give.
