Uline reviews

An incredibly micromanaging and unsupportive environment. I worked here for 4 years at their corporate location and was grossly underpaid. All employees are required to work 45 hours a week and it’s a strict 8-5. You have to ask you boss permission just to come in 15 minutes late or leave 15 minutes early. Only 16 days of PTO a year which wouldn’t be bad if you didn’t have to use PTO just for doctors appointments and if there was some flexibility or work from home option but no one at all is allowed to work from home. Dress code is business professional and you actually get written up for not following it. People are quitting left and right but management refuses to make any changes to improve company culture. Literally every single employee i was close with is thinking about leaving because of how bad it is. The owners are huge Trump supporters and politics is always talked about all day, everyday by everyone. No matter your political leanings it gets exhausting. If you do one thing wrong it’s like the end of the world. No room for employees to be humans and make mistakes at all even when learning.

The employees are at Uline are either 1) drinking the Uline kool-aid and love it Or 2) bored with the work, and hate everything about it When you’re interviewing or first hired at Uline, HR will say something like “the bad reviews on Glassdoor are just extremely disgruntled former employees and you shouldn’t listen to it.” But what people write is true. Dress code, clocking in and out, micro-managed sooo much, etc. I worked there for about 20 months and I think it was a fine job. But at the end of the day, this company isn’t good long-term for fresh grads or anyone else. Hope this helps whoever is out there!
