Pros
Decent pay to start, paid time off, profit sharing bonus yearly, benefits are well, and holiday pay is a bonus
Cons
You essentially are competing against other employees for productivity and you will definitely get a lot of backstabbing selfish people only concerned about their own productivity and skipping over work to hit their quota and leaving you the hard work that they deliberately skipped, versus helping a teammate out to get the job done. When you notice management they basically could care less honestly and it is absolutely sickening. At the end of the day literally everyone gets the same review either way from what I have had other people tell me which is a 3% increase no matter how much you sacrifice and work more than the other person or believe you are doing more than average, you are not, according to 'Uline' standards. I had perfect attendance for the year but was rated a 3 out of 5 for my attendance. How does that work? They do not care about you at this place. Claim there is "great opportunity," but really they are just moving you to a building further away from your home. You will most likely also work more overtime at this location that is already taking more time out of your day due to the drive, making for long work days at a mundane job at best. A building manager came up to me during my lunch on a Friday( I usually always stay in and bring my own lunch which is an hour long) and asked if I was ready for the move on Monday. I had no idea what he was talking about but apparently I was being moved to another building that no one notified me about. He was upset and said "this is not the 'Uline' way" stating that he would call me in to his office to further address the issue and make sure I was taken care of. Guess what, I never got called in to his office and had to figure it out on my own, so much for the 'Uline' way. I have been accused multiple times of taking steroids by a building manager telling me that I should go inject some more steroids into my @**. Ironically the next day I had a "random" drug test. I asked a building manager when we were training one of our guys on a reach truck because we could really use the help. He smirked and looked at me saying "sometime." We had a new employee start working for us and he had a gallon of water which was store at a desk fairly desolated, safe out of site. A building manager was walking around doing an audit on our department and instead of addressing to this brand new employee right in front of him that we apparently cannot have those in our building, he took a picture of the gallon and wrote an email to our managers plus those above him about the situation. We receive errors for product picked incorrectly. There was an employee that had four errors on a single picker page which is usually eight lines total, instead of getting all four errors he only received one. I personally know that he knows people that work or have worked here. Call it ironic or what but if that was me or any other employee I can certainly guarantee I would have received four errors versus one. For example, a new employee put some skids back to stock literally the first day he was officially trained. Apparently there was a miscommunication but honestly it is terrible training. They blame you for everything when in reality it starts up top and trickles down. Anyway, he received 26 errors for not stocking those skids in at all, in my opinion, because of the terrible training they provide. Guess what? He got all 26 errors and those did not get condensed into one error like the other guy. Ironic? In all honestly if you are doing it for the money, go ahead but still not worth it in my opinion. If you want to feel appreciated and respected, I highly recommend you stay away.
