Pros

None. The role could have potential, but the issues below overshadow any benefits.

Cons

My experience as a Delivery Driver showed that the workload is extremely demanding, especially during peak season. The operation often feels understaffed, which leads to employees being stretched thin and working under significant pressure. The overall organization needs improvement, and there is limited support for workers in the field. Equipment reliability is another major issue. The phones and scanners that drivers rely on frequently freeze, lose battery quickly, or malfunction. This slows down the workflow and adds unnecessary stress in an already fast-paced environment. Reliable tools would make the job far more manageable.

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...
