      Pros

      The postal service used to be a great place to work for good benefits and job security. No so anymore.

      Cons

      They provide no benefits, insurance, paid vacation, sick days, nothing, for non-career PMRs even though we are doing exactly the same work as a Postmaster, and generally working 42 - 45 hours per week.

        Pros

        The job security and opportunity to gain leadership positions is awesome and one that provides a wealth of experience.

        Cons

        The USPS is cutting back costs and if you are in management on a salary, you will be expected to work long hours and 6 hour weeks.

      Just finished an application to a university that required me to enter all my work experience twice. First under employer history then AGAIN under work history. I am hoping no one else is that persistent or stubborn and I will be the only applicant! Oh, and you had to attach your resume too.
