Pros

Pay is excellent, reputation of company

Cons

YOU ARE MARRIED TO YOUR JOB--the term, "work/life balance" is a regular theme with why people leave business development. Pretty sad as UPS has lost a lot of great people but hide under the arrogant guise of, "well, they just weren't driven enough." I thought that when I was first hired, but after seeing so many talented people leave because there was no time for their family & personal life, I completely understand. Which is why I don't work there anymore!

Pros

Company is highly recognized for its many years of solid business practices. Great to have on your resume. Some of the people are great to work with and genuinely care about the well being of others. Great health package.

Cons

Horrible pay structure. Terrible management style. No respect for hard working people who really care about the image of the company. Integrity and honesty is the thing of the past with the company. Use to be you could only loose your job if you cheat, steal, or lie which only applies to everyone that is not apart of the executive structure. Management cheat to satisfy the shareholders, they steal time and money from the employees, and they lie to appease upper management so that they look good. Hardly ever hires great talent outside the company. Will match internal talent to a different career field. Oblivious to the diaster that lies ahead. They set people up to fail by doing so.

Pros

The pay and benefits were industry leading for my position. The paycheck comes weekly. It always cleared.

Cons

Everything else. Every other possible metric reveals that UPS falls short. You are a replaceable piece of meat. It does not matter how hard you worked yesterday, or even how well you did yesterday. You are a piece of crap today, get back to work trying to meet impossible standards. Middle management are the true culprits, with first line managers bearing the brunt of their wrath.
