      Pros

      Decent benefits, after a few decades you might be a driver making decent money

      Cons

      Dealing with unreasonable volume per period of time. I moved about 30,000 pounds per night five nights a week, and often boxes would pile up. Co-workers drank energy drinks or did coke and let their definition of manliness influence them to break their bodies in the name of competitive labor productivity. I was trying to go at a rate that I felt was less threatening to my body, tried to be aware of my posture and physical procedure, but after two months I got shooting pains in my shoulders and wrists.

      Pros

      Easiest job Ill ever have for sure. They payed for my college which is nice. Working nights sucks but the actual work is easy.

      Cons

      Night shift sucks. Get used to it eventually but its not for everyone. Also a lot of people there that dont have any real life goals to do better than make $25 hr part time.

      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...
