Pros

Free coffee, and sometimes snacks. The ability to run a team of people. Sometimes great coworkers A good community of people for the most part Training opportunities and the ability to move up You know your boss well, they generally understand that life happens. It made the day easier.

Cons

Moving up is a popularity contest Strict scheduling, your every conversation with employees is tracked Increased time crunches when profitability drops Possibly being saddled with multiple jobs for the same pay Strict 7.99 hour limits on work Pay raise for a year can be as low as 23c High turnover, you will be training people all year long Management turnover, your bosses are moved between shifts at the drop of the hat. I had my favorite boss for about 3 months before he was moved. I hope he got the promotion he wanted, that guy was fantastic. In a normal 6-7,99 hour day, 4 hours of it was mandatory drills and training. They do a lot to make it so its more of a conversation, but you are the supervisor with a wip and your team are driven like work horses. All of that annoyance will build and you will be the bad guy/gal/etc. Shifts are weird.

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...
