Great company to work for

Pros

It may take a while to become a regular employee and receive benefits, but they are worth the wait. Also, the salary is great for a job that does not require much educational background.

Cons

The work environment is not the greatest at times. The work load is sometimes very tiring and rough on the body, with lots of heavy lifting. The weather can be extreme at times, with unbearable heat or cold.

Going Downhill Fast

Pros

Decent pay. There is money to be made here if you like working long hours all of the time. Most of your co-workers are cool and pull their weights.

Cons

All management cares about is pushing the mail. You are only as good as your last good day. On the bottom of the totem pole technolgy wise compared to the JIT companies.

Lack of job stability as USPS continues to cut expenses

Anonymous employee

Pros

It's a job! Good starting pay. Federal employment.

Cons

Hours have been cut in half as USPS restructures its facilities. No real job security. No benefits except paycheck. USPS is behind the times with its technology being outdated and obviously doesn't have the funds to change this. Upper management is experiencing high turnover as closings and reductions take place. At some point in the future Congress is going to intervene in the USPS operating budget with subsidies. The USPS appears to be on a downward spiral.
