      Greed at its finest!

      Package handler

      Pros

      Nothing. Can’t speak on healthcare benefits because I didn’t stay for a year.

      Cons

      Everything! Even with my master’s degree I came in as a loader to start from the bottom. Took and passed the supervisor test and attached resume but still no response. No leadership programs or anything else promoting career growth. Seems as if u have to be 18-21 years old with NO degree to become a part time supervisor. The pay is shameful. Greed! The list goes on. I’d be typing all day so I’ll stop here.

      Learn a lot and feel ahead of my peers, but slow-moving

      Pros

      I started at UPS when I first got out out of school. In retrospect, I’m really happy it was my first job. You learn a lot and have the opportunity for exposure. The salary is decent and the benefits are nice.

      Cons

      UPS is working on their work-life balance, but it’s a massive corporation so it’s taking time. It also just depends on what group you are in. The worst part about UPS is the “peak ready team.” They did not do one to my knowledge for 2018, but in 2017 I (and many others from the corporate office) was sent to work in a hub for about 5 weeks between thanksgiving and Christmas, and all I got was a mug. This is also not necessarily a “fun” place to work. Most employee events have an awkward vibe, because again, it is so big. That being said it is what you make it!

      Great temp job with lots of pay in a short timespan

      Pros

      -Incredible pay for what it is, with overtime at $18.75 (and since it was the Christmas season I worked overtime around 2-4 hours a day) -flexibility in choosing who you work with (I had a few different drivers and while I stuck with a main one, the opportunity is there) -for those in need of money and a thing to do, this will give you that thing to do--as a college student with the whole month of December free, I latched onto this and got a great deal of money from it. They will have you working practically every day if you desire.

      Cons

      -On the other hand, they will have you work practically every weekday. If you're looking for something more part-time, I would not go with this. The latest I worked was 8pm (after starting around 10am) -For those in densely populated areas I'm sure the level of package delivery is even worse than what I had to deal with (live in a town of ~48K). In the week leading up to Christmas the packages were overflowing into the drivers area, and we had to deal with those and the ones right inside before we could even begin to move around in the back and organize packages. I imagine it's even worse in more highly populated areas
