Pros

Stable employer that rarely ever lays off anyone during economic slowdowns. Work life balance is a high priority.

Cons

Very slow to make strategic decisions. VERY scared to spend money on technology. Too attached to the past. Constantly clings to idea that doing something for 100 years means that it is the best way to do it.

Pros

One of the most financially stable companies in the world to work for. They really take doing the most with the minimum to extremes. This is very important in todays ultra competitive economy. Just be ready to WORK, WORK, WORK! There are NO easy jobs at UPS.

Cons

They can be a little behind on newer technologies which makes an employees life safer and easier. (I.E. Power steering for drivers, hoists for mechanics, etc...)

Pros

UPS has an average compensation package for both part time and full time employees. No place is 100% safe but UPS also has pretty good job security especially for its union employees. In may jobs you are lucky to get a raise at all but at UPS you can always count on the 3%+ every year at the same time. They also have college tuition reimbursment for those looking to continue their education. UPS is especially great for women and minorities. They have MANY oportunities for advancement for both.

Cons

Depending upon the department you work for you may not get much family time. Many of the supervising jobs require MANY hours (60+ hours).
