Pros

Job stability. An extremely stable company that you do not have to worry about being laid off. It is especially great in a down economy. Friendly people. The people I have met in this company so far has all been friendly to deal with. Flexible schedule (at least for IT positions). I have been able to take the time off whenever I needed it. Many available jobs to choose from (depends on your position too). UPS is a large company and it has a great variety of positions if you have the skills to do it.

Cons

Compensation below market (you pay for stability) and not based on performance. Difficult to advance (at least for IT positions in certain groups). Company culture/traditions maybe too ancient for the younger generation.

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...
