Total dictatorship, with horrible management.

Pros

Pay and benefits. That's it. You must sell your soul for those two pros.

Cons

Poor management, no room to move up, employees are valued if they snitch on other employees or just lie to get noticed, Liz (the CEO) has 100% control and makes decisions that benefits her only, Interoffice communication does not exist. Future of company look poor with trouble of transportation (rather then let customers get two or three day shipping for less, customers are forced to pay high shipping charges for next day)

Thank you for sharing your experiences. We’re disappointed to hear about your less than excellent experience at our company. At Uline, we believe great customer service is achieved when our employees are satisfied. That is why we choose to invest in our team, such as with Uline University, tuition reimbursement options and much more. When our employees succeed, we succeed as a company.

Pros and Cons

Pros

- Opportunities for development: You can raise your hand and get experiences that you want to. - Bonus programs: Bonus programs are very competitive. - Successful: The company is killing it, and has been for years. Whenever you think the success is going to slow down, it doesn't.

Cons

- Base salaries are not competitive. Uline looks for top talent but then expects to pay middle of the road for it. - Very poor maternity leave policy (and no paternity). - Focus on hours. You can bust your butt 47 hours a week and be compared unfavorably to someone who stands around for 50 hours a week. - Cubes are audited to ensure they follow strict guidelines.

Pros

Excellent bonuses, Family oriented, very clean work environment. Decent pay for what you do and what you have to put up with on a daily basis.

Cons

Distribution manager is a pathological liar and can't be trusted. Branch manager has no idea what is going on in the building. Employee moral is extremely low. Promotions are not based on performance or work ethic but on how much brown nosing you can do.
