Pros

Benefits, This is the main reason people stay (unless you are a driver making $35/hour).

Cons

Low pay for what is expected of you, poor communication from upper management, complete lack of respect for PT supervisors, constant micro-management, high turnover of PT management and employees. Employees have too low a starting wage to retain any quality people. On top of it they have to wait 1 year to get the health insurance (which is the main reason people actually stay). Management is so desperate for workers they will overlook almost any type of infraction which sends a very negative message to the few employees that actually care. This place is a nut house... problems ever where you look. Very rarely is anyone actually recognized for hard work or trying their best.

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...
