Ok to work for. Union there sucks though.

Business Outlook

Pros

2500 Tuition reimbursement per semester. Flexible with scheduling. Simple job but have to be willing to work hard. Great exercise and/or workout.

Cons

The union there is terrible. You have to pay a years worth of union dues before you get any benefits. People there who have been around for a while have seniority even if they are terrible workers, show up late, do not show up at all, sometimes even show up with alcohol on their breath. There is a real lack of discipline.

Business Outlook

Pros

The benefits are OK. Tuition reimbursement up to $2,000 per semester. The health care package is fine for the price you pay. Opportunity for advancement within the company is pretty good here.

Cons

The hours are not the best: 3:30am - 9:15am average. No incentive program in place for supervisors to make production numbers. Pay is disproportionate to responsibilities and hours. Excessive micromanagement at all levels.

Great compensation, challenging work environment, and many promotion opportunities. UPS is a great place to grow professionally and learn in a fast paced environment.

The job can be very demanding, and there is little work/life balance. Senior management can be very harsh and criticial.
