Pros

The only good thing about UPS is that you get PTO and sick time, paid holidays.

Cons

Upper management is horrible. Supervisors aren’t terrible depending who you get. There’s zero communication among UPS. Nobody ever knows what’s going on with UPS as a whole. Employees get zero recognition for hard work unless you count a cookie on employee appreciation day. You get worked extremely hard for very little incentive.

Pros

Teamster union 804. Pension 25/30/35 years. Health coverage for you, your spouse and children up to 26 years of age. No monthly deductible only union dues 2.5 hour wage once per month. The pay is great even someone out of high school/college. Pay time off. Depending on how many years you get up to 6 weeks vacation.

Cons

Long days. This is no 9-5 job. You have a set schedule daily by seniority. There is no end time meaning all packages got to be delivered and pick up be made.

Pros

$14.00 per hour. Sounds good but for only 10 - 12 hours a week with union dues are taken out it's not worth it! You end up with about $125 per week. Your pay goes into the gas you spend driving to and from work. So for a back breaking job you end up with about $75 per week. Who can survive off of that.

Cons

They advertised the position M-F 5:30 - 10:30 (eve). On the first day they gave orientation and said we can expect to receive 25+ hours. That was a lie. Since the day me and others started we've only been given 3 hours sometime 2.5 hours a day because there is not enough work. Each week my check has been about $125 when I was expecting $300 based on the hours we all applied for and on top of this little pay of $125 they deduct $25 for union fees. Each week mgmt promised the hours would pick up. I was considered a hard worker so they awarded me with a small gift my second week there. The next week I was told that they were promoting me to supervisor which would give me more hours and more money. Two days later they hired another supervisor with no explanation to me. The next day I called out and when I returned the following day the new supervisor set me up in my station and then the manager said "oh you called out yesterday, well we really dont need you today so you can leave". This is RETALIATION for me calling out one day. UPS I'm disappointed you allow managers to take advantage of those trying to get their feet on the ground and work hard for you. I guess Warehouse employees are meaningfulness. Turnover rate is high because of false advertising of hours. Why stay to risk our lives to COVID for 2 hours a day when we were sold on 25+ per week. BTW - there it's no AC to loaders. You work in a hot truck.
