[QUOTE="PAUPSGuy, post: 3798983, member: 67271"] 75% of UPS management is up for retirement over the next 3 years. Hence the transformation and push to bring in talent. (pay increases at the trench level PT sups start at $18.50-$21 and union employees start at $13-$15; region dependent) They are resupplying their management pipeline right now. UPS is a great company to work for with a lot of upward mobility but it requires a lot from the individual(s). If you're a non-self-starter or someone willing to throw any union or management member under the bus then you're best going another route. If you have no intentions or motivation to pursue a degree when UPS basically pays for it then you will not last in management. You will inadvertently crash into your glass ceiling and struggle. I see it all over the place inside management at all levels. The company has to do what it's doing right now because of how fast and efficient our workforce is changing/becoming. College will provide you with a lot of help but again; it requires effort. If you want to drive, that will also require effort. 80% of our problems as management come from 20% of our people. Short-sighted leaders blanket punish or group think because it's easy. Hence why there is this rift between the two. Bad management, bad drivers, low IQ, group think = :censored: recipe. Focus on the people/your employees if you go the management route and it will provide you with the money. Money comes with the territory for people that properly - lead. Even here, despite all the misinformation. Also, this may very well be in a company outside the big brown. Don't pigeonhole yourself into thinking about this job as the end-all-be-all. There are great paying jobs all over the world but nobody will pay top dollar for underqualified people. Also, filter half the drivers on here, they are all sipping bourbon at all hours of the night having a good time with you. Which is honestly hilarious, I have to admit that, lol. Good luck, stay positive and continue to educate yourself. [/QUOTE]
