Pros

This job has a great benefits package. Tuition reimbursement, annual raises, medical, dental, vision are only a fraction of what is offered at this company. There are chances for advancement if you are willing to deal with all lot of grief from senior employees. This can be a great long term career if you land the right position. Otherwise I would recommend this UPS to students looking to make some money part time while going to college.

Cons

Whenever the company and Teamster's Union can decide on a contract the benefits are great. Unfortunately if you are a hard working individual you will be used constantly to pull the slack of those who just show up for the benefits and a little extra money. The Union allows for employees to work as little as possible and maintain their position. There are times when employees have held a job after not reporting to work after an entire month or more. Management has not been strong in their effort to motivate workers and make them aware of their rights or the consequences of taking advantage of the system. Because of this the workforce is unstable and unbalanced. Credibility and integrity are values that are rare on all levels of employment. Working conditions are awful. Facilities are just barely holding together and the filth is left to pile up in all areas. Under staffing is a real issue as well. The company does not like to put people in positions outside of what they have already done. So if you are an operations employee expect to remain in the operation as a supervisor manager and so on.

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...
