Our yearly sales plan is set up to fail so that a great majority are not rewarded for gains. These need to be aggressive but also realistic.

How's the work life balance at UPS?
Respuesta de los mejores empleados
Awful. Being out of the house for 14 hours a day leaves no time for family or anything else. People who file overtime grievances end being ridden and given warning letters for the dumbest things. Harassment is at an all time high
My stepdad works here and basically missed out on whole childhood, that should tell u about the work-life balance here
After 25yrs at UPS, work conditions have actually worsened. The everyday stress of the Job and the constant harassment from management beats employees moral and ability to spend any quality time with family. The work days are extremely long and exhausting and even when you request to work no more than 8hrs because you want to make to your kid’s game, they make it nearly impossible for you by stacking extra work on you so that mentally pushes you to work like an animal just to try to get out in time to make it to the game. Some days are better than others but when you look at the grand scheme of things, we UPSers give up so much… time that you’ll never be able to get back and make with your kids and family. So I’m conclusion, there’s no such thing as a work life balance at UPS.
What unique perks and benefits does UPS provide?

If you could make changes, how would you improve the culture at UPS?
i wouldn't make any changes.. the culture is perfect at UPS
Over micro management of employees needs to end. Harassment of hourly employees needs to end. Competent training needs to be enforced and corrected if need be. The culture of management looking down on all the hourly employees needs to completely end. The hourly employees of the company are the heart and soul of this business. When no one cares how the day to day operation runs the customers and the employees hurt. No one will want to ship with us and no one will want to work for us. When that happens employees start to question why are we doing this, it's not worth it!
Pay part timers more let part timers work 4 a day or more make union dues equal everybody else's not be more here and there they should stick to 2 1/2 times hourly rate and no more. Ban management from doing union work hire more women drivers

A smile
