UPS Employee Reviews for Anonymous Employee

"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."

"As a package handler at UPS, I received slightly above minimum wage, which was in line with industry standards. However, the job was physically demanding and required a lot of manual labor."

"Working as an operations supervisor at UPS was a challenging but rewarding experience. The pay was competitive, and the benefits were good. The team was supportive, and there was room for growth within the company. Overall, it was a good job for someone looking to gain experience in the logistics industry."

"I worked for UPS for over 5 years. It was a challenging experience, both mentally and physically. It required many skills both physical and mental. Being organized and aware of your surroundings and the tasks at hand were extremely beneficial for success. The workload during the holiday season was particularly taxing on an individual. Very long hours, with minimal sunlight and cold temperatures, certainly made it a challenge."

"UPS Freight was recently acquired by T Force Freight. TFI is making small and steady changes including new equipment and driver incentives. There is a lot of negativity to overcome, specifically with culture. TFI would do good to chop off the top heads and start over with management that doesn't have 14 years of UPS cancer embedded. Salary is average and Benefits are Great!"

"Great company to work for."

"The job is a great way to learn initial skills and build upon yourself. you will get a lot of time with the Microsoft suit. the management can be lacking when it comes to some aspects like teaching. The environment is always fast paced. You need to be able to learn on your feet and always be as acute as possible. There is also always room to grow."

"Coming into corporate “off the street”, having worked at other companies, the culture, support and career opportunities are pretty dismal, especially now during transformation. They can’t keep millennials, and have strong favoritism for people from operations and lifers at the organization. Experiences differ by group, but some groups are extremely toxic with very old-school, beat you with a stick mentality. Everyone is just a number, and easily replaced, and most roles involve endless PowerPoint decks and spreadsheet reviews. I’ve never worked at a place that wasted so many hours focused on minutia that has no value to the corporation or customers. It’s endless busy work. It may be good on the operations side, but the culture change that the new CEO talks about has yet to precipitate through the organization, and there are many people in leadership roles that are just awful, and no nothing if leadership. Unions, large percentage of salary paid in MIP and pensions promote mediocrity and many miserable people with golden handcuffs. There is very little true innovation, ideas s add bd input are not only undervalued, but often discouraged, and you are treated as a robot that is expected to have no emotions and no life. Be very careful which group you join."

"I have worked for UPS sense 2012, in the 9 years I have been with the company I have learned quite a lot on how to deal with high pressure situations as well as how to make quick decisions."

"I worked for UPS starting in June 2014 and was with the company for over 6 years. I worked with both management and employees daily as well as outside customers. The overall experience working for UPS was a good one with a few exceptions. Being a management level employee, I was able to work in many different locations and form relationships with many people across the country."
