Business Outlook

Pros

You love being involved in a very fast-pace moving company, you like doing multiple tasks at one time and are passionate about making difference through the work that you are doing. Also, if you like to get your hands dirty and being involved in the operational side of the company, this company is a place you want to be

Cons

Not much of an opportunity for advancement and if you are doing the management side of the company, the chance is that you might get bored doing your job because you don't have enough stimulation that can energize your hard-working spirit. Last but not least, not enough team project that would create a stronger bonding between the employees.

UPS - Don't work for them- the Union Sucks.....

Loader

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

To provide a little extra income. The income is very minimal, though, and the Union takes alot of it- in exchange for underrepresentation. The union is simply the Mafia- skimming money from the person doing all of the hard work and making the unions/reps richer.

Cons

You are litterally overworked and underpaid. The pace is too fast for most individuals. Turnover is 50%, as they tell you when you are hired. The work is dangerous and the equipment is outdated and not kept up. The lighting is poor. The climate control is absent. The working conditions are horrible- I don't know how the Union employees put up with it- did you ever notice that UPS employees never strike- I think that UPS pays off the Union to avoid strikes.
