Pros

store closed at 6:00pm. didn't have to work past then. the only good reason to work there.

Cons

pay was low. management sucked. good job for college student not someone trying to make ends meet.management was the franchise owner. there was no room to move up. unless you work for the UPS corporation NOT the franchised owned stores. good luck getting in. its competitive even getting in the part-time openings

Pros

Union stewards are the most helpful people of all time. Take care of yourself.

Cons

Some supervisors will pressure you to work faster so they can be done at a certain time. inconsistent break times. computer will not clock you in until the sort time so don't clock in early.

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...
