Pros

The people I worked with were the best part. All of the people I worked under had a real interest in my success. They helped whenever they could and knew when to just let me figure things out on my own. The pay was not bad for the position I was in, which was an hourly specialist. The salary employees also start at a decent salary. They almost exclusively hire from inside so once you are in you have the opportunity to work in tons of different positions depending on what you would like to do.

Cons

The company is very old and it shows when it comes to their internal processes. It didn't always feel like everybody was pulling in the same direction, and I know I was not alone in this opinion. Lots of people who work there have been there for their whole careers which leads to some people becoming very stuck in their ways and not receptive to change. If you are starting from off the street be prepared to have to learn A LOT just to get to a basic level of knowledge.

Pros

The pay is excellent .health care is 100 % paid with 100 %coverage...with exception to eye and dental which is about 70%..coverage...pension is outstanding..full package with wages and benefits is worth 130,000 yearly..without a college education I am grateful for the standard of living UPS HAS AFFORDED ME AND MY FAMILY!...and with 27 years of service I now get 6 weeks vacation with 8 sick days..and 9 paid holidays...we work hard like many people in the work force but we are well compensated!.

Cons

The only con is while your children are young you give up a lot of family time..I never got to watch my kids play sports and missed a lot of their growing years...the job can be hard on your home life but if you can make it through those years you and your family will enjoy the financial freedom that UPS provides...and now I look forward to a prosperous retirement!...so hang in there all you young drivers...
