Pros

Great brand, great reputation for servicing their customers. Benefits are good too but changes are starting to effect that view. Rising insurance costs and new rules for getting stock options, etc.

Cons

AEs are drowning in reports, paperwork, meetings, and "strategy meetings". Instead of selling, they are spending endless nights, mornings, days reporting on everything and anything that has happened! How about letting them sell instead of talking it to death? They cause many tenured employees to quit because they get tired of all the BS paperwork! If you complain, you get targeted and they find a way to get rid of you.

Pros

The pay is excellent .health care is 100 % paid with 100 %coverage...with exception to eye and dental which is about 70%..coverage...pension is outstanding..full package with wages and benefits is worth 130,000 yearly..without a college education I am grateful for the standard of living UPS HAS AFFORDED ME AND MY FAMILY!...and with 27 years of service I now get 6 weeks vacation with 8 sick days..and 9 paid holidays...we work hard like many people in the work force but we are well compensated!.

Cons

The only con is while your children are young you give up a lot of family time..I never got to watch my kids play sports and missed a lot of their growing years...the job can be hard on your home life but if you can make it through those years you and your family will enjoy the financial freedom that UPS provides...and now I look forward to a prosperous retirement!...so hang in there all you young drivers...
