Pros

You are providing a service to those in your community. The work itself is rewarding and challenging at times even though it is not constant or overburdening. I am pretty much a first responder to any malfunctions that occur while the machine is running. I do some planned maintenance while the machines are idol.

Cons

The company's management is is most of the problem. Very few of them are aware of all that is going on. Most attained their positions due to their lack of performance as a worker or nepotism. They receive bonuses and pay for performance that not of their own doing or knowledge. Many in management really do not know what their subordinates do for 8+ hours a day. Maintenance mangers seldom understand how the machines work and only respond to red highlights around running parameters. When ask by a subordinate how they want something fixed, the manager usually barks " I don't know, just fix it!!"

Pros

Benefits, national so you can transfer or promote to any location, we all work for delivery to every person, every house - so what you do touches everyone you know.

Cons

Working in mail processing requires shift work and 7 day a week work. In delivery having to work in all elements of weather. Currently the uncertainty of the organization with mail volumes declining and the increase in social/electronic media.
