Pros

They pay for up to $35,000 in schooling or $5,000 a year in college reimbursement. Discounted stock program

Cons

This is in regard to management. If you are union. Yes! Work here! Union takes money out of management. Because the company has an easy place to make up lost money from management. UPS is a dumpster fire. It is no longer the company it once was. To start off: their pay is terrible. In my position I get paid 10% less than the median of all IE's across the country in all fields. UPS does not pay their people that well. They say they do but they don't. They expect 60-70 hours a week with many people working 80+ hours. Management is a joke, the Leadership culture has shown that they do not care about their employees based on policies they are making. Another issue: policies made are showing that they really dont want employees to stay any longer than a couple of years and then they want you to move on. There is no benefit to staying here long term anymore. If you get over 5 years here it is near impossible to find a job elsewhere as the skills you learn at UPS do not transfer to other jobs. If you were to take my advice: do not work here. Work life balance: there is none. Pay: does not pay well at all especially when factoring in all of the hours they expect you to work. Management: I would say 80% of managers should not be managers. Terrible people skills. Don't know how to talk to people. Upper management: all about money. I expect to see huge job layoffs this year. Benefits: insurance is not cheap Breaks: you don't get any. Management does not take breaks or lunches and is often frowned upon when you do.

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...
