Pros

Great benefits & great employees. Lots of Vacation time after a few years you'll be thankful for after dealing with so much. Off on weekends. Have entire day before my shift (twilight) to get things done like school, appointments, grocery shopping, car maintenance, interviews, etc.

Cons

Horrible management & way too much stress for a part time supervisor position. I've been in a department with management where rules change day to day. If something goes wrong, the full time specialist in my dept will find a way to place blame on the 2 part time sups that are left. Mostly me since the other PT sup and the specialist are best buds. No opportunity to offer ideas or insight & if you do, the specialist will use it against you in a future email if things go wrong. Which discourages any new ideas. Also I've mentioned that I'd like to move up within the company (& away from my current dept) since I've graduated from college but no luck. I've been told to wait a few more YEARS and MAYBE a full time position will open up. I've been part time for years, worked my way to the current position I'm in but it seems that I either need to know someone in a higher position to pull me up or wait. So if you are willing to wait 10-15 years to go full time, go ahead & apply for UPS. The company claims they want people with degrees & encourage everyone to go to college but then when that time comes, they tell you to wait in line just like every one else.

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...
