Pros

Universal is a place to get your foot in the door but most people leave within 1-2yrs. If you really need a job this is the place to go as they are constantly hiring due to high turnover.

Cons

Universal typically doesn't hire from within. Nor do they promote workers even if they are high achievers. Management tends to micromanage their best workers while allowing other people to completely slack off. For example, they would consistently get on certain ppl with upper level positions to be on time and chastise them for being 2 minutes late to their desks. All the while, coworkers in lower level positions could come in 30min to 3 hours late to work (or not at all), 3 timrs a week with no problems. This leads to low employee morale. Oftentimes those in upper positions would have to pick up the slack for underperformers. Management would constantly pile work onto their high achievers, but wouldn't allow raises, even while adding responsibilities due to turnover. Management also frequently placed vacation freezes on those in the saled department. There were times when no one could take vacation for 5months at a time, or were required to work more than 8hr days in order to make up for the lack of staff. This company typically works off of a skeleton crew. So if you like being micromanaged and underpaid/ unpromoted this is the place for you.
