UPS

"If I could go back 8 years and tell myself not to settle, that would bet my advise to any new employees. I use to be fulltime until 3 years ago when my job was eliminated. I have since been working part time busting my butt to get back to a full time position. I have a college degree, I have 8 years with the company, I work 2-3 hours a day unpaid just to make sure the job is done and our department runs effectively. All of that and I still have not been promoted to full time. I watch all of these people get promoted that have less years of service and or experience than me. I don't understand it. I have young kids which I don't know if that is the issue or not. I've hung on just hoping that something will pan out. but after the last 3 years I'm not sure there is hope. Overall benefits, pay, and employees are great!"

"Finish your degree on the company dime and leave."

"I worked here for 4 years and my biggest mistake was trying to prove that I am equally as tough as my male coworkers. What I learned is that no one is questioning my strength and instead that I came off as unapproachable and cold to many. Take advantage of networking with other woman. Many regions have woman's leadership development groups that meet monthly to support/guide each other and address any serious issues. My experience has always been that these meetings are not only fun and informative but also a safe place."

"I wish I would have quit my first day. I have been mistreated for 10 years and so have many other people."

"To get to know your management well!"
