Pros

UPS offers a very good benefits package, however the management was a little lack-luster. A good, easy way to pick up a consistent pay check.

Cons

The management only cares about moving packages throughout the building. The care of their employees falls behind the advancement of packages.

Business Outlook

Pros

UPS offers great benefits through Illinois blue cross blue shield. Part time employees have a regular work schedule that makes it very easy for them to accommodate a second job

Cons

Employees are worked hard and have most of their duties micromanaged. Management makes changes on the fly with no research and seemingly little knowledge of the issues they cause.
