Pros

- Usually you have great job security, but not always. - Non-union employees get about 35-40% of their tuition paid for as long as they stay 2 years after graduation.

Cons

- Promotions and raises are based on length of service rather than merit even for NON-union employees. - Few UPSers perform the bulk of the workload while others skate by doing as little as possible. - Non-union employees are treated as union when it benefits the company, but are treated poorly when they feel they can get away with it

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...
