Pros

No pros at the moment Leadership showed no remorse in a townhall where they announced closing operations sites and laying off thousands of employees. They were happy. HAPPY.

Cons

- my manager gave me a suggestion based on his 25yrs of service in UPS, "RUN. RUN as far away as possible from UPS." - Slow growth - Favouritism - Regardless of knowledge, people are promoted to Architect or Principal roles just because they are in line for promotion
