Pros

If you work hard and are a good employee you will keep a job. The company provides benefits at reduced cost to part time supervisors. Pay rate is decent for part time management positions so long as you do not have a college degree. Work day is fairly predictable although there can be drastic swings in responsibility at any given moment. Lots of eyes on your work at all times for better or worse. Safety is important to the company. Some of my frustrations may be local as other centers might be better managed from the top down or situations might be different.

Cons

Seemingly not much upward potential within the company at this time. The pay rate it mediocre if not sub par if you have a college degree and work in part time management. Dealing with union workers and stewards is a huge PITA at crucial times. The union is more interested in keeping and adding jobs than maintaining an exceptional workforce. Full time management leaves part time management to run operations while they handle drivers for the most part. Prepare to be inundated with paperwork and reports. Company is all about the bottom line for sure, yet they pay out the nose for labor in some circumstances.

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...
