Pros

The benefits are good, but a bit pricey.

Cons

Promotion from within, based on who you know not what you know. My supervisor held up my paperwork to get in the pool for a promotion for six months By the time my paperwork was finally received, I had missed the panel interview sessions and four people got promoted last week without me even being considered.

Business Outlook

Pros

The job as a UPS driver is great for the benefits and the pay. Ups drivers are among the highest paid deliver drivers on the road and do not have to pay extra for benefits. This is great news for someone who has a family and the union fights very hard to make sure that drivers get the pay they deserve and try to keep management from working us to death delivering more packages that we can handle. If you work for them for long enough then you will have great job security because you will only get fired if you really mess up or are not liked very much.

Cons

Management breathing downing your back every minute. Will threaten to fire you if you are not like very much. Long hours on the road no matter what the weather is.
