Pros

Small company, the stores are individually-owned franchises. Work environment depends on the owner. It's a great place to learn many facets of what small business owners need day to day. It's a good jumping off point for perhaps a better paying management job elsewhere. Or, depending on the owner, potentially get into buying your own location if the current owner is looking to get our of the business (and if you have the assets to buy a small business).

Cons

The general public believes you are responsible for the whereabouts of their Amazon packages. This is a common misconception that leads to angry "customers" that really are not your customer. This leads to doing customer service work for UPS but you don't get the benefits or pay of a corporate ups employee. Many other instances of UPS taking advantage of the franchisees and their employees. They use the stores as an almost no-cost-to-them warehouse and are whittling away at the store's customer base by undercutting the stores and stealing customers.

Pros

Learn a lot about small business and how they operate.

Cons

They are franchises and sometimes the owner of the store is not the best to work for. Cares more about the money than his actual employees that make them

Pros

Great hours, great people and wonderful experience for customer service and packaging. Boss was willing to let me study and print papers after i close the store.

Cons

Open to close every Saturday. Stressful learning curve for the first 6 months. You will be operating the entire store by yourself most of the time.
