What I like about working for Walmart vs UPS!

[jonathandavis]

Ups over Walmart all day! More money, better pension, union, great benefits 👍 29 yrs old and have my own house all thanks to ups.

I left a 15 year Walmart driving career in FL, and ran to UPS 4 years ago to run sleeps out of Cach. I respect his opinion, but couldn’t disagree more! The equipment belongs to the company. Period. You can’t take it home, but what I can take home is the best benefits me, and my family ever had. A pension, and about $50, 000 more a year!!

Only difference between Walmart and UPS is UPS never called me back when i filled out a application !!!

UPS. Teamsters. West coast team driver. 4 days out 3 days home. Over a buck a mile. 5000 mi a week. Easiest job ever. Drop hook come back. Two kids in medical school. I love UPS. Treated like gold.

Almost went to walmart recently, recruiter had a good offer. Pay was decent and equipment as well. Just couldn't do the serious downgrade in health insurance. Will keep them in mind in the future though if they ever upgrade their insurance plan

That was a good one. I didn't see that coming either LOL

This man got a UNION JOB AND THEN he got a WALMART JOB???!

[rockymntnliberty]

That's funny, I was noticing the other day two different times I saw UPS trucks pulling Swift trailers. That seemed very odd.

I was in trucking for 30 years... at most we were in 33 states...and when we need to get s full load from the manufacturer we pick up at.. they would send another shipper to pick up the loaf and finish the delivery.. We never opened the trailer ..just picked it up and brought it to our terminal.

UPS are hourly wages! So if you get stuck in traffic, your still making money, and over 8 hrs, or 40 hrs a week is all overtime. Time and a half! Holliday pay. 8 weeks vacation a year, sick day pay! Teamsters Union!

[kevinthetruckdriver]

What's the difference??
He can drop & load at a DC. Then wait his three to four hours to get unloaded at Walmart. Then leave their property to find another place to go (within 25 minutes of drive time) to finish off your 10 HR off duty time to reset your clock.

Done that plenty of times.

[emmanuelscott]

What most individuals fail to realize is that ups had a very tight hiring window and many of the ups terminals are extremely far from ones residence so they then appeal to the locals nearby. Secondly one willl probably have to complete a compulsory part time seasonal gig to maybe get hired permanently.

I’ve know for a fact that Walmart takes great care for their drivers. And they never leave until retirement. I have met a lot of great Walmart truck drivers with a great outlook on life. I’m sure I’ll get some negatives on this but I don’t care.

[brodyjames]

Just subscribed love this I’m getting into trucking. Just finished my class. Going to take my behind the wheel and skills test within a week. I’ve heard a lot of good things about Walmart they take care of the drivers very well.

[detroitv]

I heard that Walmart (from a guy at my job) that he was told at an interview that drivers don't get their own tractor until after they been with them for quite a while. Which is ridiculous if true.

[joeseabert]

I’ve had the pleasure of pulling a Walmart trailer from dc to the store and waiting to be unloaded. I was not working for Walmart, but a contractor. I have to give much respect for the unloaders. Can’t say for certain that the way they stack these pallets is to make it intentionally harder to unload, but the effect is there is a lot to be desired about their understanding of how gravity works.

[chrischapman]

Now you won't have to pay attention while driving, when passing another truck on the I10 you can take All the time you like and you'll likely start hanging out with the swifty drivers after work

RL carriers for all your shipping needs. One call one carrier!
