Pros

Some of the best benefits available! Clear and concise goals. Great workout, I had beautiful biceps! Tuition Reimbursement up to $4000, and I used it all every year. Friendly employees. Different and challenging

Cons

It is still the good old boy system. After you are in management, you don't really have control of the sort that you wish to work. The senior management team, the ones who built the place, didn't like women in positions of authority. I had to play delicate flower so often, because I refused to play strong and lesbian. There was no place for creativity or external views for making changes. Long hours, full-time supervisors endure long hours, usually 11-13 on average without any typical lunch break. You know, where you can sit down and just get away from the operations? No, you better grab a Coke and keep it moving. I can't wait for lawsuits to start pouring in from Il like they are in CA. But for some reason CA management team seems to have all the courage.

Pros

THE DRIVERS! they were so nice. Not afraid to give advice, I really liked the drivers, the only ones I had contact with. All were good at their job, etc

Cons

Cold. So this may be only part of the country, but omg, I would have to get paid $100 an hour to work basically your whole shift in 30 or below weather. Before calling me wuss, ask if your winter experience is segments of running to warm place to warm place or hrs in the cold.

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...
