Pros

Pay is excellent, reputation of company

Cons

YOU ARE MARRIED TO YOUR JOB--the term, "work/life balance" is a regular theme with why people leave business development. Pretty sad as UPS has lost a lot of great people but hide under the arrogant guise of, "well, they just weren't driven enough." I thought that when I was first hired, but after seeing so many talented people leave because there was no time for their family & personal life, I completely understand. Which is why I don't work there anymore!

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...
