Pros

The pay and the hours aren’t terrible, the hands off approach from management is nice, and the health and dental benefits are pretty great.

Cons

The company has to move more product to keep up with the rise of costs as the new recession encroaches, but our warehouse is understaffed, and UPS would rather discipline their overworked skeleton crew for our attendance than hire more hands so that we can actually function on days when two people happen to take off. the Union is pretty much incapable of enacting any kind of real change that would actually benefit the workers, the only thing they’re good for is making sure you don’t get fired but that won’t stop you from wanting to quit. $200 a week isn’t enough for the amount of labor we do at local sort.

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...
