Pros

Enjoyable work during the spring and summer months. Good variety of both indoors and outdoors work environment. Other RCAs very friendly.

Cons

Job can be very stressful. Especially during the Christmas season. Management sometimes makes you feel like you are not working fast enough even though you are working nonstop for 12 plus hours a day without taking a break.

Pros

Learn about the entire Manhattan as a carrier

Cons

6 days mandatory work work every holiday no matter what 15.68 salary sometimes working until 10 at night not entitled to benefits until after 1 year no sick leave can be fired at any given moment for no reason you start for 360 day term contract and every 360 days you get fired then possibly rehired if they want you back. so every year you take a 5 day furlough you are not a permanent or "career" employee until after possibly 5-6 years which then you don't have to get fired and rehired every 360 days. which now you receive sick leave hours no you get benefits now you get salary not hourly and then when you get to be career your overtime hours are cut and the temporary position you held before is now being held by someone new who is now taking your overtime hours because paying you overtime may cost USPS $45 per hour as opposed to paying the "CCA" (temp) overtime hours which costs USPS $22.50 per hour

Pros

more money then you know what to do with and great benefits. You will make lifelong friends with your coworkers. Awesome retirement. Keeps you in great physical shape.

Cons

It will be the toughest job you have ever had with a great deal of stress. No home life because of all the forced overtime. Most of the stress comes from management.
