Pros

UPS offers tuition reimbursement for students meeting their criteria. It is different depending on where you live. It was a great place to work when going to college.

Cons

UPS is a union company. This is usually a good thing but some people misuse it. UPS is scared of getting a lawsuit so they don't fire people that need to be fired.

Pros

Very hands on job, part of one of the biggest customer service processes in the world. Good opprotunities and benefits once you really establish yourself. Great workout.

Cons

Hourly pay is pretty low for the amount of labor put in. Management relies too much on the package handlers and thus becomes visibly upset at workers who really didn't do anything wrong. Also, attempts to solve problems by using logistical figures instead of common sense and real life scenarios. New benefits package kicks in after 6 months of working and one year for family. When economy tanks, job security is low and minimal hours are worked. To solve overtime problems, they hire dozens of seasonal help to help handle the winter workload but seasonal help is clueless and inexperienced so it ends up being more of a problem.

Pros

the company offers a lot. the benefits are awesome and your guaranteed a decent amount raises every 6 months as long as you don't go into management .once your a full time driver your going to make between 75k-90k.free benefits 5 personal days and a couple weeks of vacation and off on weekends.so if your not book smart but still want a comfortable life style then ups is the way to go oh and its also unionized =job security

Cons

its takes ad least 7 to 10 years to become a full time driver . hard labor and getting up mon-fri from 3ish to 9 for the next 7 years...yeah doesn't sound too great. but if you stick it out your set.... Ive been there for 3 years now
