Pros

They have since restructured the sales team, but when I was there I was able to develop a full sales cycle skillset. Decent training and the name is well known enough to get you into customer's doors. Good local leadership. but that will depend on location.

Cons

Company has been undergoing changes as long as I have been there. Addition of DAP programs (digital access platform rates) omits the need for sales reps in many cases and makes you feel like you are sometimes competing against UPS. Resellers are also a pain and another example of competing against yourself. Be ready to be the fall guy for your customers. Constantly increasing rates, surcharges, and other perimeters like Dimensional weight to penny pinch customers. Have to constantly stay in the news with changes and be ready to have tough conversations with customers explaining why these changes are made.

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...
