Pros

Stable challenging environment. Management tends to be fair (Although it depends on who your manager is). I have never had a bad manager. The same cant be said for many of the senior managers - They very often seem quite disconnected from reality and often times our employees and customers suffer because of it. However, if you stand up for what you believe is right and fight hard, you can most often win the battle.

Cons

Our technology is supposed to be superior - and it is as long as the customer can give us the data we need in the exact format we need it in. If the customers not flexible, we usually get into trouble. I think that will change soon as we are making significant upgrades to many of our systems and the future looks bright.

Pros

You don't need to have a fancy home to live in because your home is at UPS. You get to be a slave driver, and you get to fire a lot of people.

Cons

Your job is always under threat. Lots of unhappy people that want everything but are unwilling to work for it. Lots of turn over among management. It's hard to work for a customer that has a better compensation package then your own. I say fire your boss and go work for your customer, then you can boss your boss around :) and make bank doing it! If you want to work hard and only do ok in life work at UPS. The Golden years are over, the growth stage of stock splits and IPO is over. The age of growing liabilities, and competition by goverment postal systems will slowly erode the core business of UPS.

Pros

There are just a few good reasons to work at UPS Supply Chain Solutions depending what region you work at. The benefits are very good. The pay is better than most employment out there. It is very easy to get full time work. The actual job it's self is constant and can be very fulfilling once experience is gained. The available technology to perform daily order processing and tracking packages is very efficient. The IT department is very helpful once you know the IT language. The paid holidays are nice if your a lucky employee that doesn't have to cover the after hour calls.

Cons

Where to begin. If you have life changing events whether it may be marriage, buying your first home, life threatening disease, family events, college, or anything I may have missed; there is a good chance that your manager will find a reason not to give you what you need or deserve unless you are a yes man. Even if everyone around you know the manager is dead wrong. If your life changing events will hurt your manager or supervisor's bonus at the end of the year, there is no chance that your manager will work with you or invest in his own business to make the business more streamline to be more profitable. Greed is God here. Don't unintentionally make the manager appear to not know what it may be talking about or you will find yourself stuck working by yourself with a history of seizures. We have conference calls that are supposed to let employees give ideas on how to make the business run smoother and I have personally stopped getting involved because the problems that are addressed never get taken care of. There is a sea of silence every time when the manager asks questions about what could be done to make the work place more functional. The atmosphere in the work place could be like the 1950's Communist scare. Using time off that is alloted to all employees is put under the microscope and become more trouble than it is worth. When I have requested time off, I get to play twenty questions with my manager. It wants all the details like I work under the Stalinist Regime.
