[QUOTE="Channahon, post: 450139, member: 7666"] [b]Re: Stop Discrimination in UPS AGE DISCRIMINATION TOO! UPS Management!!![/b] Anyone who started with UPS in the 70's or early 80's and was in a management position, had the benefits of UPS being private, with stock growth year after year. Once UPS went public and stock had doubled in value, that is when all the changes came about in the 90's. Although, still a great investment, the organization started consolidating districts and regions, outsourced the phone centers, and started acquisitons of other companies became the norm, to enhance UPS's customer portfolio. With that expense, management did see buyouts, and restructuring, over the years and the restructing continues to go on globally. Not only with UPS, but the subsidiaries as well. Now to address the retirement benefits at age 55, as opposed to waiting to 62. First and foremost, with the added responsibility assigned to UPS management, and the lack of needed resources to do the job, as it was in the past, when a manager or division manager could run their operation, well those day disappeared around 2000. Then it was the Regions, and IE telling everyone what to do, how to do it, and then throw in Finance, along with BD, well, that was enough to make anyone's head spin. So perhaps the logic was to put way too much on mangement plate, to make 55 look like the right age to leave. And quite honestly, as much as UPS hold management accountable to their cost plans, anyone who couldn't or wouldn't leave at 55, may have had financial reasons for not leaving. You know the kind, second marriages, young children, health issues and family issues. I know I was ready to leave finacially at 55, and the day I walked out the door for the last time, well, it felt like I was paroled to enjoy the rest of my life. And have been doing so for the last 3 years. As far, as the current management at UPS, only the strong will survive, if the Micro Management is stopped from the Corporate level, to allow the district and region staff do the jobs they get paid to do, not be puppets to the upper echelon. JMO - as a happy retired UPS management person, who has the utmost respect for my co workers I left behind, and our service providers who keep our customers satisfied. [/QUOTE]
