[QUOTE="adnapadnam, post: 4986400, member: 80242"] As a feeder driver out of Oak Creek, WI I can tell you this much: - Our current MRA pay is $27/hr through Jan 15, 2022. If they don’t continue MRA pay after that, starting pay for the first year is $21/hr. Progression pay rates are: Start: $21 12 months: $23 24 months: $24 36 months: $28.75 48 months: Top rate - The $38/hr is for temporary, SEASONAL positions which will end on Jan 15, 2022. - Yes, where you would start is an on-call position. It’ll probably take over 1 year to be on a dedicated continuous schedule. Maybe 2 years. - If you are on-call and not driving due to not enough work, you are able to bump into working inside the hub but you will make $16/hr. If you’re smart and look at everything else UPS has to offer in their compensation and benefits package. A lot of young people like to only look at the dollar amount they take home. They play the short game instead of the long/career game. After 30 days, you’re eligible for medical benefits. Assuming you’re a younger person, maybe that’s something that isn’t all that important to you because you have your health currently. But you may not always, and health care premiums are only going to go up from here. And if you have a family, you can easily pay $1000/month for decent healthcare premiums. Retirement benefits. You’ll be eligible for a pension which most employers don’t offer. After 25 years, you could choose to walk away with a monthly pension for $2000/2500 (pending your age). Or stick around to 35+ years and the monthly pension increases to $4000+. If you’re only in it for the almighty dollar, go work somewhere else. You’ll be able to make your $80-100k your first year there. But you do you, bud. [/QUOTE]
