Pros

-Great benefits especially considering it is a part time job -Health insurance, dental, vision -Tuition assistance -Most people are given days off of work when they ask for them -Can become a part-time manager pretty quickly (within a few months) if that is what you want to do -If you have a good reason (college) and you have worked there long enough, it is possible to be transferred to one of the many other locations throughout the country

Cons

-The attitudes of the people you work with can vary greatly depending upon what area you are moved to. In one area you could be working mostly with hard working people that are easy to get along with and then be moved to another where most of the people find ways to work as little as possible and do nothing but complain. -If you aren't already in pretty good shape, the job can be tough. It can take a few weeks to adapt to the job physically. -If you are unlucky enough to have to work for a manager that is not very good, your will end up having to work even harder

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...
