Pros

Job security, strong brand, community image.

Cons

Operators run the company, who have no knowledge of sales/growth. Very old school policies and personnel that work at UPS from 18 yrs until retirement. Usually old, bitter, and just looking forward to retirement. Operators, who drove UPS vehicles for a number of years tell the sales people what to do and how to do it. Then expect to then receive reports as to status of business growth. Sales people are on the bottom of the food chain and have a very steep, slippy slope to climb up the company ranks. Do not trust that future advancement will be available in the near future even for someone with exceptional sales results and MBA.

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...
