Pros

The benefit of working at UPS is simply that, the benefits. A great overall package consisting of medical, dental, 401k match and an employee stock purchase plan were the main offerings. The work environment is great for a recent college graduate that can dedicate a good deal of time to their career. Those who can put in the hours are generally given a preference and the opportunity to develop.

Cons

If you're an hourly employee at UPS you can pretty much expect to work a standard 40 hour work week, but if you are a salaried employee watch out, you'll be working the extra hours to complete things the hourly employees couldn't get done. Very difficult to advance in departments outside of the core operations due the number of people competing for the position and the length of time between an available opening.

Pros

Good pay and benefits. Upward mobility within company is pretty good for areas with growing markets. Teamsters union is a good union.

Cons

Hard work, management attempts to break union rules. Upward mobility is difficult in stagnant or shrinking markets. Positive feedback is scarce.

Pros

BENEFITS! Preload hours work well for stay at home moms. (Work 3am-8am then home for the family). Only part time for the best benefits you'll ever see. Plenty of opportunities for advancement if you're willing to change your schedule, join the management team, or become a full time driver.

Cons

It is extremely frustrating and physically demanding. It pretty much kills your Christmas joy (peak season makes for much harder work). Now one must work for one year before recieving benefits, and 18 months for the family to receive them as well.
