Pros

Your alone in a truck all day seeing different types of people making really good money with benefits and a union, also if you help out management, you'll get a day or two off. Keeps you in shape.

Cons

Extreme overload days due to cutting routes, rarely take breaks, they want you to hustle and get done early to help others but if you get hurt or into an accident they blame you for rushing. Also pee in water bottles so you don't break off your route.

Pros

The pay is excellent .health care is 100 % paid with 100 %coverage...with exception to eye and dental which is about 70%..coverage...pension is outstanding..full package with wages and benefits is worth 130,000 yearly..without a college education I am grateful for the standard of living UPS HAS AFFORDED ME AND MY FAMILY!...and with 27 years of service I now get 6 weeks vacation with 8 sick days..and 9 paid holidays...we work hard like many people in the work force but we are well compensated!.

Cons

The only con is while your children are young you give up a lot of family time..I never got to watch my kids play sports and missed a lot of their growing years...the job can be hard on your home life but if you can make it through those years you and your family will enjoy the financial freedom that UPS provides...and now I look forward to a prosperous retirement!...so hang in there all you young drivers...
