Pros

Job Stability, benefits are great (pension, medical, 401k, stock bonuses). You get personal days (min 5 days) in addition to your vacation days. Sick days are unlimited. The new pension plans gives the younger and new employees more flexibility.

Cons

Not young or dynamic, very conservative and older staff. Tuition reimbursement is pathetic. The IT staff is so old you don't get any new innovation, IT works on old technologies and does not create an environment for innovation. College degrees are not valued much as most of the older generation were part-time workers. Upper Management gets rewarded on a different scale than regular Manager and supervisors.

Pros

The ONLY reason to work for UPS is the salary. The money and benefits are great, but it comes at a cost. You're treated like you do not matter, and you don't. You're told to lie to the customers. The customers of UPS are nothing but numbers, they matter as much as a UPS employee does (not at all).

Cons

Managers are promoted from within, causing a "carrot in front of the donkey" syndrome. The philosophy of UPS is to GET THE PACKAGES OUT OF THE DOOR no matter what the cost to UPS or the customer. The customer comes last.
