      Pros

      Decent wage. Decent health benefits.

      Cons

      Poor management. Managers don't listen to suggestions from the employees. It's "their way" or "there's the door" mentality. That's why the PO is going down the tubes.

      You can work for them as long as you're willing to do more work than you get paid to.

      Pros

      Umm...depending on your supervisor, you could take more than your allotted amount of time on breaks. No one really cares where you are as long as there isn't any work to do.

      Cons

      All the people who seem to work there have some serious attitude problems that they should deal with in therapy. Most of these people seem slightly unstable.

      RUN away as fast as you can, unless you like being loaded like a lop-sided pack mule. WORST job I have ever had!

      Pros

      Trainers were good, but I learned mostly from on the job training. NOTHING...I mean NOTHING can prepare you for a walking route, unless you are accustomed to being loaded like a pack mule. Most employees sincere and hard-working, although you really don't have a clue what the job is until you actually start real work.

      Cons

      You think its a great job with the possibility of full-time with benefits. Good luck! If your back isn't broken, you must be used to some ancient form of turture. I can only say this was the most physically, and emotionally exhausting job I ever did. The pay was great! Don't be fooled. No amount of money is worth it! I invested over $150 in all-weather hiking boots, just so I could walk. One day in snow boots and I had to buy something else. I have BLISTERS on top of BLISTERS on my feet. My thumb is cracked and bleeding. I walk like a 100 year old person. I am popping pain pills just so I can move. Don't let the pay fool you. McDonald's would be better and I'm serious. You want a break? Good luck with that. NEVER will I ever recommend USPS. I'm saddened and ashamed. I thought you all were better than this. I now know that your employees don't mean squat. Good riddance!
