Pros
Pay is amazing and so are the benefits. I made 60k+ my first year out of college not including commission and my yearly bonus. The majority of employees bleed brown and have a strong sense of pride in UPS. The company has a variety of perks including a turkey for each employee for Thanksgiving and tons of discounts with various venders.
Cons
The stress level at UPS is pretty high, especially when the economy is not doing well. Work-life balance can be tough to achieve. Many employees work 10+ hours per day. High pay early on can make it difficult to leave the organization, rarely will you be able to make that much elsewhere.
