Pros

UPS used to be a great place to work with great benefits.

Cons

As of 2024, there has been a shift towards "quiet firings" within the organization. The prevailing sentiment is that only full-time supervisors or individuals holding higher positions are deemed as valuable employees. Part-time supervisors, specialists, and administrative staff have been informed that advancement is the primary route to increased compensation. The organizational culture at UPS continues to reflect traditional paradigms, where promotions are often influenced by personal connections rather than merit-based evaluations. District Managers wield significant influence over the allocation of top-tier evaluation ratings within their respective employee groups. In cases where employees receive higher ratings from their direct supervisors, efforts are made to adjust scores to align with those of neighboring districts. Unfortunately, instances of supervisors resorting to retaliatory actions akin to those observed in grade school settings have been reported, particularly when employees express dissatisfaction with their employment conditions.

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...
