Pros

Security of a Corporation, average benefits, average compensation, good people

Cons

Untypical extreme pressure on lower levels of management, No training of management anymore, Everyone is a resource - not a person, Compensation is trending towards industry average (per HR memo), no 401k match, Leadership in management is in decline, turning into a "grind" job environment, individual achievement is suppressed but extreme pressure to meet ambiguous goals, very few advancement opportunities in a stagnating opportunity company

Pros

Its a big, stable company. UPS is a well know and well respected organization International assignments are available, depending on what your skill set is.

Cons

Compensation is well below market. Too much emphasis is placed on longevity instead of performance Upward mobility can be limited Too much red tape, especially from HR

Pros

the company offers a lot. the benefits are awesome and your guaranteed a decent amount raises every 6 months as long as you don't go into management .once your a full time driver your going to make between 75k-90k.free benefits 5 personal days and a couple weeks of vacation and off on weekends.so if your not book smart but still want a comfortable life style then ups is the way to go oh and its also unionized =job security

Cons

its takes ad least 7 to 10 years to become a full time driver . hard labor and getting up mon-fri from 3ish to 9 for the next 7 years...yeah doesn't sound too great. but if you stick it out your set.... Ive been there for 3 years now
