Pros

UPS is solid financially, the benefits are very good. I was fortunate to be trained by someone who was very knowledgeable which makes me very good at my job.

Cons

References to light building volume by part time and full time supervisors which are not relevant to my particular area. Directing us to work outside our area for half an hour to an hour daily and then refusing to take that into consideration when computing our production numbers. New hires now seem to be put into a job without sufficient training. As the end of the shift gets closer and these new hires are having trouble getting done, their supervisor just yells at them to go faster. What has happened to the supervisors who knew the job and how to lead and instruct people?

Pros

Easiest job Ill ever have for sure. They payed for my college which is nice. Working nights sucks but the actual work is easy.

Cons

Night shift sucks. Get used to it eventually but its not for everyone. Also a lot of people there that dont have any real life goals to do better than make $25 hr part time.

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...
