Pros & Cons of Working at UPS (Part 1) - Pros

[@terrimurray4240]

You are no longer a union worker if you become a supervisor. I've been there 5 years and the smart thing to do is put in about 3 years and you can bid on being a driver. Feeder drivers make $40 an hour where I'm at in Cali I love my job

[@Lucky_Male_Bee]

I put 5 years in at AMZN in the shipping department but a UPS was next door & I always heard how much better it was at UPS. I finally decided to make the switch & wish I had started at UPS years ago!

[@Ch-hg1iu]

Fedex and amazon suck

[@yungFizz92]

@@Ch-hg1iu fed ex GROUND sucks. Get it right. I'm at express lol. It's amazing

[@CaptPreston]

Depends on what your goals are. If you want a better starting wage, and aren't determined to stay long, pick Amazon. If you want to be a grunt, and are willing to put some serious YEARS of hard back work in to rank up seniority and pay, go to UPS. There's definitely some tradeoffs. I made $5 more per hour starting at Amazon, but I didn't get union benefits. On the other side, I made $14/hr at UPS and had to pay a $200 initiation fee + 2.5x my hourly rate biweekly towards the union, but I didn't get any benefits til I hit 9 months. It would have taken me 5 years at UPS as a package handler to make what I did at Amazon as a new hire. But you get that Union protection and benefits though. So you have to outweigh the pros and cons. Also, Amazon had way more updated modern tech, heavy machinery, and automation to assist with the flow compared to UPS, where our facility was outdated from the 1980s, and nowhere near up to speed to accommodate a 2021 covid online marketplace economy. They just expect you to work harder at UPS since they don't want to spend the $$$ shutting down their centers and updating to new efficient tech lol.

[@Lucky_Male_Bee]

@@turn-n-burn1421 Yeah, I worked at both of them & they're both horrible places to work.

[@Lucky_Male_Bee]

@@CaptPreston I liked having the union at UPS. It's better to start there young & you'll make alot of money by the time you retire. Plus you can become a driver.

[@vu5997]

I worked as a security guard at UPS for a couple of years back in 1991. The only thing that you can be definitely fired for is stealing. You can fired for other things. If you do get fired, just file a grievance with the union and they'll get your job back. A shop steward said one employee was fired 13 times. High turn over rate among part timers.

[@смиренный-х2б]

[@jaykenpachi6788]

A few more pros 1.you get a pension 2.401k 3.you can make over $1,000 a week doing a drivers helper combo (work inside and then go out and help the drivers after your shift is over) 4. You get overtime after 5hrs or after 8 hrs if you do the drivers helper combo.

[@josephsuarez8178]

But...Drivers Helper I want to Know. if Your Pay Rate Stays the Same at $14.50?...my checks been Weak at $215. I'm expecting $400. No Excuses. And I am Not Signing the Teamsters Union Application for Union Members

[@SFStransit]

Yeah, you get a pension. After FIVE years. They do this because they know people will quit after 1-3 years because of how physically demanding it is. Do not allow yourself to be overworked at UPS, your health is more important than money.

As long as you show up every day, do your job, be safe, you will have a good career here. Know your supervisors. Communication one of the most important parts to success here. Attendance is probably the most important thing other than safety, but Communication is up there because if you talk to your supervisors and don't abuse your lack of attendance, you're more likely to get time off. Secondly, you're more likely to advance if you talk to your supervisors. You want management or become a driver, talking to your supervisors is your fast pass to advancement. Pluses and minuses to go with management, but it can be a good fit for some. Many drivers make $100k per year and I hear pilots do even better. Peak season Thanksgiving to Christmas with over time hours you will make good money in any role.

I got hired on for peak, "part time" and temporary. The 15th of December to Christmas eve was rough, generally 10 hour days, but I didn't bat an eye at 20 an hour and OT after 5 hours. Found i enjoy the work, and my coworkers (supervisors included) are all actually really cool. Made a few friends, a nice paycheck, then didn't get laid off when all the other newbies did... I'm now permanent. The job schedule is great for me, with me pursuing a culinary degree. I know they pay for school, but I haven't talked to them about it. Full benefits after 1 year, a strenuous but small work schedule, decent pay, and great coworkers... this I'm okay with. I can overlook the torrential rains of Seattle, the sore feet and muscles, when I know this is what I need to be doing at this point in my life. Can't complain. My future lies in my dreams, and UPS is allowing me to pursue them better than a life-sucking graveyard job cleaning restaurant hoods that dead ends your pay at 16 an hour unless you're a supervisor, then you cap at 24.

[@EddieLeal]

Where I work as a UPS ramp agent our schedule is not set in stone. If there are any delays due to aircraft maintenance/break down you have to stay there with the aircraft until it is either repaired or all of the cans have been swapped over to another plane. Even if nothing is wrong with the plane you still have to stand by and wait until the plane has taken off and has flown out a certain distance before you are allowed to go. Some folks have had to stay anywhere from 2 to 3 hours past thier shift due to unloading/loading planes due to mechanical breakdown. So if you have another job you have to get to make sure you are aware this can happen. We get $14.50/hour

I've been working for UPS for 25 years. In my experience, there are more benefits in being in the union (Teasmters) than you would be in management. In my experience, management can terminate you automatically. If you are a Teamster, there is a disciplinary process aka your Weingarten Rights. In short, you can't get fired automatically. There are exceptions to these set of circumstances of course. But through my years of experience, this is what I've witnessed. I'm a proud to be a member of the Teamster Union.

I cant see a con making 40 an hour

[@CS-np2oo]

Neither can I. I work at an airline. Loading frieght, boxes, US Mail, Human remains, luggage, everything you can imagine with backs,knees legs and feet in the belly of aircraft. OT is required as the Operation calls for. Sometimes mandatory OT. Weather , mechanical delays, etc You go home when the flights go out. Even if that means working to 2-3am due to weather, maintenance. Now you definitely get OT, especially on Holidays. But UPS guys crack me when they complain about working weekends or having to stay until 10-11pm. I'm not any would make it American ,United or Delta Airlines. Working 5-6 flights a day. A flight coming in from Lima, Peru with 20k in bags, mail, frieght and then going out in an hour and a half with 17k going to L.A. bags,msil,frieght, etc We're not at $40/hr, but we have hit the $30/mark and unlimited flight benefits anywhere in the world.

So if I wanted to be a driver and know little about driving a stick shift it could take years to become one? What do warehouse workers make?

My building in Delaware have hired over 20 drivers who don’t know how to drive manual. I think they are not making it mandatory anymore. We had a driver who couldn’t drive a manual. The supervisors had us switch his load to another truck. They can’t force you to drive a stick.

I World there... the Worst job ever. The air is so polluted. Dust everywhere. It is so hard to breath. Sorting it's a nightmare! Packages fall on you and you get buried in them. Cant walk safely on their sorting isles. The belts NEVER work. And boxes keep coming at you at high speed and that's how you get injured by those boxes...

So someone can't work at UPS and go to school, or maybe you would just rather put yourself in massive debt to get a degree in liberal art history. What a stupid fucking comment.
