People are quick to judge this company and how they operate. People come on here to complain about everything thats going on with volume through the roof, harassment or general working condition without appreciating the position they're in compared to others. How many companies offer jobs with over 100k and not anything more than a high school diploma? I know of a couple drivers that don't even have that! Meanwhile, other companies are offering much less with pay and benefits. Take a look at the fortune 500 list and count how many companies offer the same benefits and pay ups offers. The great thing about the company is that you get to choose your path. Weather it's management, hourly, package handler, mechanic, plant engineer, sales, corporate, janitor, security... Literally you can be anything at UPS if you go after it. If you were to ask my opinion of the company, it would be it's a great company that offer opportunities to people who would probably live a rough life if this company didn't exist and people take for granted the things they offer.
New hire quit because the job was too hard. Couldn't consistantly lift paper packages in a productive manner when I'm barley over 120 lbs and did the entire route with no help.
@Maple Grove MN Driver wouldn't last 30 years in today's UPS. He probably had is struggles but it's still nothing compared to what we're dealing with today.
I want a corporate career to get an opportunity to change things I see wrong in the operation. That's why it's important to start at the bottom of any company. If I remember, when I started my first check was 99 dollars. To realize I came from 99 dollars to over six figures makes me proud. And the company allowing me to finish school and open up a business as well did wonders for my life. I've been very successful and will be worth millions of dollars because of UPS at the end of my lifetime.
