Pros

UNION. Livable wage. I earn around $85k. Excellent retirement benefits. Good health plan Offer HSA/FSA Possibility to transfer anywhere in the country if you wait long enough. Yearly salary increase. Cost of living adjustments that increase pay as costs increases.

Cons

All the pros only apply if you can endure the work culture. There are very few personnel in management that actually know how to manage or even treat people with respect. You are just a number on their clipboard. If you make their numbers look bad, they will try everything in their power to get rid of you. When you first begin, your work/life balance will be imbalanced.

Pros

The work is not physically demanding compared to other factories jobs. The work is the same process every day. Pay is acceptable, benefits are good, the healthcare options and cost are reasonable, there is a retirement pension. The work is inside, it is climate controlled.

Cons

Coworkers with poor with ethics. You will stand most of your shift and steps vary to a massive degree, I average 10 to 80k daily steps according to my step counter. You can work a lot of hours especially during the holiday season. Working most if not all of the holidays. If you are one of the carriers delivering mail overtime is mandatory extra day and hours year round in my local area. If you want to work during the day you will need lucky timing or have to be a mail carrier or a window clerk or have years of seniority. There is a high turnover rate due to the inability of the new hires to get used to working nights, such as 6 to 230am or 4 to 12am.
