Pros

A good, well established company. Great ethical principals of how business is ran. People are treated with respect.

Cons

UPS uses something called MAPP process in order to promote people into managment. One must pass a special training course before being eligible for promotion. Also, being in the pool of holders of MAPP does not guarantee your future promotion. (You can be in it for 10-15 years) There are reasons for this, but it does limit the speed at which you can climb the corporate leader.

Pros

UPS spares no expense in training supervisor and management level employees. It is a great place to begin a carrier right out of college.

Cons

UPS does not promote based on performance but on the amount of ass you kiss. If you are not willing to kiss some major ass and go out for drinks with your boss this is not the place for you.
