      Pros

      Large company, stable employment, nice training initiatives

      Cons

      Ever since Mike Eskew stepped down as CEO, the corporate culture spiralled downward. The new CEO was a beancounter, and every action had to be justified in terms of direct ROI. As a result, a lot of software bugs never got fixed, because nobody wanted to take the risk of trying to make something better if people were used to it being barely mediocre. So, most of people efforts devolved down to CYA, as they took away every perq that made the place worth working there. There are better places to work that pay more and actually value emplyoee contributions.

      Pros

      The pay is excellent .health care is 100 % paid with 100 %coverage...with exception to eye and dental which is about 70%..coverage...pension is outstanding..full package with wages and benefits is worth 130,000 yearly..without a college education I am grateful for the standard of living UPS HAS AFFORDED ME AND MY FAMILY!...and with 27 years of service I now get 6 weeks vacation with 8 sick days..and 9 paid holidays...we work hard like many people in the work force but we are well compensated!.

      Cons

      The only con is while your children are young you give up a lot of family time..I never got to watch my kids play sports and missed a lot of their growing years...the job can be hard on your home life but if you can make it through those years you and your family will enjoy the financial freedom that UPS provides...and now I look forward to a prosperous retirement!...so hang in there all you young drivers...
