Pros

- Most supervisors are very affable and willing to support their team to the best of their abilities. - Generally supportive and pleasant employees. Small teams and occasional fellowship activities allow opportunities to connect with coworkers. - Low stress, easy work. Doesn't take long to settle into a routine.

Cons

- Low base pay with no yearly raises. Only way to advance is to move to General clerk II and III, then management. - Supervisors are incredibly overworked and spread thinly. New hires are often left with little support. - Changed attendance and vacation policies a few times. The biggest change was the required use of available PTO before using sick days. - Mandatory overtime often left night shift working from 3:00 -12:00 am on Friday, only to start as early as 6:00 am Saturday. - Little to no explanation/support regarding the benefits package. Many employees were left confused or uninsured. - Very large disconnect between upper management and lower level employees. Poor communication resulted in slow process changes and minimal instruction. - Overall negative work environment with an incredibly high turnover rate. Most of my wave of hires had left before 1 year. - The work is often very repetitive and droll.
