Pros

Good Pay and Benefits and room for advancement as UPS is having difficulty getting employees to want to become supervisors.

Cons

Managers not allowed to make decisions to control their destiny. Too much flexibility given to the Engineering Department to set up goals. If managers cannot achieve goals, it's their fault even if the Engineering plan is wrong.

Pros

This was a seasonal job that I took for the month of December- which is their peak-season; and I will go back again this year. I previously worked in the corporate world and returned to school, so I enjoyed it. It got me in shape pretty quickly, and they are super-serious about safety. I recommend it if you are a self motivated person, and reliable. Also, you might get a christmas tip from the Driver!

Cons

it was physically demanding, which isn't necessarily bad- but when people order HUGE boxes of stuff for their loved ones at the holidays- that's the stuff you have to deliver-so be prepared. Be prepared for the weather- you know what they say; through ice and sleet and.... I was surprised at how many other helpers did NOT show up some days- so I was asked to do a little extra time with another driver..
