Pros

UPS is a desirable employer from my perspective. They reward hard-working individuals with good pay and great benefits. Management is flexible with good employees.

Cons

UPS is a bare bones, no frills cost effective production where time really is money. The major downside is that it is so difficult to gain full time permanent employment there.

Pros

Great Benefits, Pay is higher than most, oppotunites to move up to a certain point, education reimbursement, meet a lot of people.

Cons

Non-flexible schedule, managers treat supervisors poorly sometimes and like to blame them for their own mistakes. Once you reach a certain point, it is extremely hard to move up in the company. Seniority rules all in this company, if your an hourly worker you have to wait YEARS before you can go full time or be a driver. The Union is a little excessive in this company, its Union workers against managment all the time.
