Pros

When I was at Uline, I had a great manager. The IT Department was run professionally and everyone was proud of their work. Lifelong friendships were also made at Uline

Cons

The owners ran the place as their little kingdom and treated most everyone as servants. Employees were fearful of running into the owners during the day because you never knew what their mood was. If your tie (yes even in these days, ties were mandatory) was not tied to their satisfaction, you might be fired on the spot.

Pros

Great Pay when you start out. Some decent opportunities for moving to another department or position. If you like working night you get 4 dollars higher pay which is nice.

Cons

They want 2 hours of OT everyday in the warehouse. Plus they want you to work at least 1 weekend day ever weekend. They will pressure you and write down reasons why you can do the "mandatory overtime" good luck getting a day off in the summer or holidays without 20 plus years experience as only 1 person usually can take off in your area. You will constantly get moved to other buildings to help them out even if it hurts your building. Also if you are a hard working go to guy/girl they will go to you for everything holding you to a much higher standard while the laziest employees get rewarded with hanging out on forklifts snacking all day.

We’re proud to be a growing company, but it sure does get busy sometimes. Especially, when we’re trying to fulfill orders for next day delivery to our customers. We’re disappointed to hear that you didn’t feel you experienced a healthy work/life balance or a fair work environment. It’s true that Uline is committed to operational excellence and hold all our employees to a high standard. However, it’s our mission to create a work environment that’s productive and positive. Thank you for sharing your experience and feedback.
