      First 30 days will be daily harassment and threats of being fired.

      Pros

      Tuition reimbursement within the first week. Has a union. Hires a ton of ex-convicts.

      Cons

      It's a culture designed to create a constant fear of being fired-at-will daily until you are eligible to join the union. Management deliberates disrespects new employees to test their commitment. Coworkers diminish each other's work in hopes to make themselves look better because of the fear of being fired.

      Pros

      UPS is a solid company that has been in business since 1907. It is one of the largest delivery companies worldwide delivering 15 million packages per day to over 6 million customers in 220 countries. The company has a national contract negotiated by the Teamsters Union for hourly employees and pays a full-time worker between $25-$35 dollars per hour plus time and a half for over 8 hours per day. Managers and supervisors are paid on average 20% more than the hourly wage. The full-time hourly employees have a benefit package in their contract that equals an additional $12-$19 dollars per hour for medical and retirement benefits. Full-time managers and supervisors have an inferior medical plan and retirement but as they advance will receive substantial bonuses of stock. An hourly career at UPS will put you in a upper middle class position and management can earn over $100k per year or more.

      Cons

      UPS has a guards verses the inmates mentality. Management rightfully expects production from their employees yet is extremely aggressive in its procedures and policies. Harassment in the company is rampant on both management and hourly employees. Many employees would trade this lifestyle of massive overtime and stress of production for lower paying jobs for a better quality of life. The part-time employees have been overlooked for decades. The starting wage in 1984 was $8 per hour. Three decades later the starting wage in $8.50 per hour. In many locations it can take 13 years to get a full-time job at UPS because they have thousands of part-time employees working full-time hours at part-time wages.
