UPS

"I've been here almost a decade. I would have told myself to get the experience and take it somewhere else where they treat you like a human and not a robot. Long ridiculous hours coupled with impossible expectations and a shrinking staff. The stress here is through the roof and is apparent on each person. The major topic of conversation when meeting with colleagues from different departments is the stress."

"Stay strong Don't let them break you or think you are any less than them Document everything ie; hours worked, time off, requests, S.W.I.M. fed back, D.O.K dimarets, injuries or physical health ailments occurred during employment"

"This company is not the one I joined nearly thirty years ago. Once they went public service and safety were brushed aside for stock performance. If not for the union, myself and many others would have been terminated years ago. As a newly handicapped worker, I have found ups less than accommodating for my needs. Once I was proud to be a part of a team, now I discourage potential employees. The only consolation is that lower management is mistreated even more than the hourly employees. Anyone who works for ups in a state that does not require you to join the teamsters, I encourage you to become a member...."

"Two words...."

"Watch out for management. They would rather stick a knife in your back and throw you under the bus than take ownership for their short comings and for not doing their job. You are held accountable for every time you go to the bathroom, but they don't hold themselves accountable for anything! Including but not limited to screwing up your payroll or your benefits or talking about employees to other employees or just all around being hateful horrible people. I would also say don't ever trust the HR manager she is a horrible person! Don't go to work there and end up feeling stuck because of the decent pay and benefits. Other companies have to be better and treat women like a person and not just a number!"
