Pros

Benefits, though increasing in cost, were overall good. Enjoyed my time with co-workers as I think in the end is what kept me there. I enjoyed working at the airport, it's an environment that you really can't match. Set schedules, typically 5 days a week with the same hours unlike most part time jobs.

Cons

Cost of health coverage had crept up at an accelerated pace. Cost cutting measures that included higher deductibles and/or co-pays affected this. Policies seemed to be written by pencil pushers with zero experience in areas they were changing. Bureaucracy of a large corporation is discouraging and most focus appeared to be on the USPS contract and growth in other markets. I realize this is their money maker, but the care and concern for domestic employees appeared to be declining.

Pros

Easy to apply, fast to get hired (no interview process) and the pay

Cons

Very rude management, lack of care for safety, no drinkable water (all filters are in the red and have been since I started) They have cameras everywhere and are constantly watching you but say you can’t bring your own phone in because “people steal them”? There is junk everywhere. Lots of trash everywhere (employees drinks and food). They want you to work and eat on the line instead of giving you breaks to do so. They get upset when you use the bathroom or fill your water bottle even if you’ve been working for 3 hours straight but if you clock in at an area 2 min walking distance from your work area you’re “stealing time” I’ve noticed people of color get treated differently. The HR department has some of the most prejudice employees so there’s no real equality if you have conflict with someone. I’ve never been, but it feels like a prison to go in and out of the building and lastly you don’t work a consistent schedule. You leave when they say you can.
