Pros

clear processes and defined job scopes. little areas of conflicts between what needs to be done in each department

Cons

needs to improve on the employee benefits. other market players can provide better packages for their empoloyees. non competitive salary package, needs to improve on bonus given to staff, needs to work harder to stay competitive with the other companies in the same industry such as fedex or dhl. some flexibility in work processes will be appreciated UPS in US has to understand that the environment is different for other countries and hence they should spend more time to think "outside US" instead of simply proceeding to implement the same things.

Pros

Honest, hard work - if you do your job properly and without complaint you will move up within the company. It may take a while to advance, but if you stick with it there are plenty of opportunities down the road. The company has also never been shy at explaining what is expected of you - no subterfuge or ambiguity. And once you start working with UPS, they are loyal to you and you have a fraternity of other workers.

Cons

Hard to get ahold of the managers or supervisors. Also, UPS is extremely dependent on the state of the economy - while the company's fortunes rise with the economy, that means they also fall with the economy as well. And if you've only been working a short period of time, expect to be laid off first.
