Pros

They hire good people. You'll get along well with everyone. You're never bored, there is always something to do. Benefits are provided and it's not hard to get a day off depending on where you work in the branch. You can move throughout different departments if you work hard. They are always asking for opinions on how to make things better and some of those mention things get fixed or done.

Cons

There never seems to be enough people. Especially on a Sunday or Monday. As it's a shipping company packages must be processed that day and if there are issues clients must be contacted. There are things that should be done but we cant cause we dont have the time or bodies to do it. Its stressful to get it all done each day. Sometimes it's hard to a break. There is always the promise of we will get more employees or you will get help but it seldom happens. When one person calls in sick its ruff. Also noticed that we all work extremely hard some of us doing extra hours to get it all done but only certain people will be offered some time off in lieu. Also there seems to be nepotism when it comes to clients and employees. Some clients get away with breaking the shipping rules while others do not. It makes it hard to determine the steps we take. I've seen some employees move up, and get better hours over other that should have first. Management doesn't see everything.

Pros

Lots of great people who work here Flexible regarding days off Willing to train you in other areas and give you experience in different departments

Cons

Chit Chats is a popularity contest and it’s hard to move around the company without being related to someone or knowing someone personally in management. Employees who do not work hard and are late all the time get away with this behaviour if they do not fall into that group. They can get away with anything without the same recourse as a regular employee. Management will act like they have your back but backstab you at a moments notice despite your efforts. Always understaffed and put the burden of this on other employees instead of hiring more people.
