Pros

There are absolutely no positives of working or a company that runs itself like a plantation

Cons

1. Hiring process: lies with regard to the schedules available (recruiter said one thing but after being hired, the trainer said something else) 2. Pa/benefits: starting pay at the hub located on Fulton Industrial in Atlanta Georgia is ridiculously low at $10.20 per hour. Adding insult to injury, they expect you to literally work like a slave by yelling at you to hurry up. It doesn't go without notice that the majority of the warehouse employees are minorities and the people looking down on them are white men, You are only give 1 10 minute break when working 3.5-5 hours. Benefits do not start until you have worked there 1 year so you will have no health insurance. 3. Lies regarding opportunities: they try to sell a load of BS to you about all of the opportunities to advance and earn loads of money during peak season by working overtime. There are only PT opportunities initially so if you need FT you wont get it at the warehouse. Also, all of the money you earn is working like a slave so the overtime carrot that they dangle is essentially working like an overworked slave for $15 bucks just to make ends meet? UPS should be ashamed! it may be legal but they are extremely unethical. 4. Part time "supervisors: they promote young kids with no people skills or leadership/management experience, nor do they train them on these necessary skills. Most of them are very unprofessional in how they act and interact with employees.

Pros

Pay is ok for what it is, apart from that there is none.

Cons

Everything. Make you work past your contracted hours which is a joke cause some people have lives and other jobs to go to and they dont even ask if you can do overtime, make you work without breaks (against the law) , talk to you like a piece of meat Lies about career progression etc etc. The list goes on and on.

Pros

Great work/life balance. Plenty of opportunities to move around in the organization.

Cons

Base pay should be higher for the amount of business we are responsible for. Sure, the total compensation may be competitive. But our base salary and commission structure is not strong compared to similar positions at other large companies.
