Pros

You have the entire day, free to do what you want if you work the sunrise (morning shift). Benefits for all employees not hired as holiday only.

Cons

Complete and utter abuse if you are a seasonal holiday hire. Stockholm Syndrome affects 95% of those that stick around more than a year and you become blind that the rest of the world has surpassed what you consider "great pay". Only one path of advancement. If you are even granted it -- they will consider you dead if you turn them down to pursue a different internal career path. Basically, never say no. Even if it affects your health or personal life.

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...
