You get to be out on the road by yourself with freedom and earn good pay and benefits will doing it. You also get plenty of vacation time. UPS is a managed well and provides a stable work environment. If you want to be out on the road and working for a respected and stable company UPS is the way to go
My pay is $25 per hour.
I Have been with UPS since march and can't complain. The job is very demanding and does require multi-tasking. Ups is union and one of the only companys that truely believe in everything being seniority based. Meing you start from the bottom and work your way up. The hours are long (8 1/2 to 9 1/2 hrs per day) Monday - Friday. The benifits and pay are great (Thanks to the Union). All benifits are fully paid for by the Company. The only thing that is taking out is taxes and union dues ( 2 1/2 times your hourly wage per month) So now you ask what do drivers make per hour and per year.
Start pay is $16.00 per hour. Then you get another $1.00 raise after your first 30 days. You will then get raises every 6 months until you reach what is call top rate which takes 3 years. Top rate is $30.00 per hour straight time and $45.00 overtime. Did I mention that anything over 8 hours per day is overtime. Most over the drivers I've talk to make between $75,000 - $80,000 per year with overtime. So yes it is hard work but in my opinion well worth it
75,000 - 80,000
UPS has been around for a long time and they know how to get things done. There is a correct way for everything you do and you MUST do it the correct way. Very methodical..you are cog in an a machine. Work extremely hard, long hours, and there will be opportunities for promotion. You gain some solid discipline.
Base salary is $55,000. You do get bonuses.
