Pros
Pay is good, but I have been there a long time. Your fellow employees are good to work with. It is a union environment so that has pros and cons.
Cons
High stress workplace without proper training to do your job. You are just thrown into a job and expected to get the hang of it, improve, or get the heck out. They have done so many staffing cutbacks in the past several years that it makes the job very intense because you are doing the work of a couple people and need to get it done in 5.5 hours. There is very little room for advancement to full-time- it is either work 5.5 hours or give your life to UPS. Every full timer I know works at least 14 hours a day- I dont think there is a normal 8-10 hour job at UPS at my facility.
