"I worked for United Parcel Service. The company is a "juggernaut". The energy and organization necessary to delivery thousands of parcels daily impressed me to no end. The quality of the people, facilities, management and pay spoke to why UPS is an industry leading company. It was great to be a part of a company that has winning as its goal and customer focus as its mantra."

Working at UPS in Philadelphia, PA: 7 Employee Reviews

UPS Employee
in Philadelphia, PA

"It's a trap. Decent pay for the work and benefits, but still the bare minimum tbh. The union guarantees a pension after 5 years... if you can tolerate working in the hub that long. Union prevents the company from holding long-term full-timers from being held accountable and the company pits management and corporate against the union hourlies. They send managers in to fight against a union without telling them the rules so they have an excuse against repeat offenses. If you like the corporate nepotism game, this place is for you. The full-time employees will gatekeep union advancement if it doesn't benefit them directly: then they justify it as fair because of their bruised ego. The healthcare and the pension are genuinely the only things making this place worth bothering with."

"I was only seasonal at UPS but the short time that I worked there I had a very good experience. I worked on the airplanes loading and unloading aircraft and making sure the packages were not damaged. The management there was nice a little unorganized but it was a cool laid back environment."
