Pros

Good place to work for employees that lack a formalized education. Formal education not important.You can have an MBA from Harvard and still be overlooked for promotion over a truck driver. Most of management lack college degrees. Equal opportunity employer in that respect.

Cons

No family life; long hours; subjective promotional process and not based on merit or ability. If you come in early, stay late and be kind to the right people irregardless of your ability, you will go very far in this organization.

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...
