Business Outlook
Pros
Honest, hard work - if you do your job properly and without complaint you will move up within the company. It may take a while to advance, but if you stick with it there are plenty of opportunities down the road. The company has also never been shy at explaining what is expected of you - no subterfuge or ambiguity. And once you start working with UPS, they are loyal to you and you have a fraternity of other workers.
Cons
Hard to get ahold of the managers or supervisors. Also, UPS is extremely dependent on the state of the economy - while the company's fortunes rise with the economy, that means they also fall with the economy as well. And if you've only been working a short period of time, expect to be laid off first.
