Pluspunten
UPS gives its part time management employees an array of benefits. That's not too common for part time employees nowadays. You will receive medical, dental and vision benefits. You initially receive weeks of vacation a year and a third week after 5 years of service. Vacation time continues to grow at some scale thereafter. A 401(k) is also provided with employer matching that fluctuates often and not for the better most of the time. The pay is also pretty competitive given the job you'll be doing, but you might question that from time to time. (Read cons)
Minpunten
UPS Operation (the operation that physically moves their parcels from within UPS hubs and onto other hubs) is anything but a professional environment. You'll be working with unionized employees and that can make your job substantially hard than it should be. The employees have a substantial amount of rights that protect them from the kind of discipline that someone else would receive at another job. Employees come late or miss work altogether whenever they please and that's the norm. This defies conventional wisdom. Conventional wisdom says that if you don't come to work for a week without saying a word about, you get fired. That's not the case at UPS thanks to the Teamsters union. When they're present they have the option of working at whichever pace they feel fit to work at and this is often a subjective measure that always works in the package handler's favor. This makes it extremely hard for management personnel like myself to meet the goals that're set up by the Industrial Engineering Department. In the end you find yourself in a very hostile environment where we pay some of our package handler's $22/hr to make our operation worse and that can be the worst feeling ever when you're part of management and you would want nothing more than to see operation reach the goals it's supposed to reach. Instead you find yourself conforming constantly to situations you should not have to conform to... and that's the norm.
