Pros

Very stable, very almost tolerant business culture. New comers will be given ample time to get up to speed on the incredible number of proprietary systems. Peers in general are very company loyal. In my portfolio the median length of service to ups is 15-20 years.

Cons

UPS is an old enterprise, it comes with a lot of cultural baggage. The IT organization also puts up with in some areas, tremendous amounts of micromanagement, large leadership gaps in mid management and an employee age mix that can occasionally be toxic. Career planning in UPS is also chaotic at best as its people software is best suited for packages, but is forced rather unsuccessfully on the IT organization.

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...
