[QUOTE="iloadthetruck, post: 724457, member: 885"] Congrats on finishing your degree. Unfortunately, the unwritten UPS policy towards self-development is, "if we didn't ask you to do it, we could care less." Take a look at managers from all levels up. Many of them either have limited educations, or saw their bachelors' degree as a "requirement" instead of something to bank on. They think they are knowledgeable when it comes to business, but in reality, they are only knowledgeable when it comes to UPS. Go out there and find a better job. They are out there, you just have to work to find them. Even if it looks more stressful than UPS, it will probably end up coming with more benefits and nice things than UPS ever wants to give out. There are jobs out there that pay more than a division manager gets with a lot less BS. Employers are impressed by UPS experience, and if they ask you why you aren't trying to move up, just tell them the "transformation" has pretty much dried up any opportunities for a while. Someday the company will realize that it is bleeding talent left and right, hourly and salaried, and not developing its people the right way, but it certainly won't be tomorrow. [/QUOTE]
