Pros

Depending on where you work UPS may or may not be a great place to work. Working in larger hubs provide the most opportunities to advance while working in smaller places do not.

Cons

Upper management in some locations are not very strong vs the union. Problems do not get fixed timely and I have never worked at a place where someone can not show up to work for a week without notifying anyone and still have a job.

Pros

Saw the above slogan on the back of a Service Provider's t-shirt, thought it was very appropriate. The single most inspiring factor about UPS is their ability to get really good people who are funny, smart and hardworking. I had a lot of fun making friends there, and most of the bosses are great, family-oriented people who give good feedback on your performance. The fantastic heritage of UPS is also to be upheld. It's a brand name we can all be proud of.

Cons

Salary and compensation is really dissatisfactory, although I heard a whole batch of colleagues got promoted after a few of us tendered our resignations. Also, there needs to be more even challenges across departments: We can be quite change-resistant, which is inevitable due to the implementation time and cost for a large organization like ours.

Pros

You really can't beat working part time for a full time benefits package, plus perks and discounts from dozens of affiliated companies and service providers.

Cons

Despite the constant chatter regarding safety, when those packages start flowing and must be kept flowing, safety can take a back seat.
