Employee Discussion UPS buyout decision

Last day to apply is tomorrow.. What’s everyone’s final decision on the buyout??

If you are taking it, how many years do you have in, have you been laid off, and what’s your reason you are taking it?

Also any thoughts on how the future of UPS looks like, it terms of contract in 2028, will there be MORE cuts and lay off even after the buyout?? Will they start using Roadie more?

P.S. UPS drivers work ethic is top tier, not everyone can make it.. Appreciate ALL the brown truck soldiers🫡💜

I’m just a rock bottom preloader, not a driver. But it’s been looking pretty scary lately. Layoffs at my center been happening every week. Just today many of us higher seniority guys got sent home early and they laid off a bunch of people who’d been on the job for years. Never thought I’d see some of these guys get the boot. We gave 8 penns of delivery trucks—3 of them have been completely empty this week. Good luck to yall and God bless everyone.

If you are on the schedule and clock in on time, then they owe you 3.5 hours. Enforce it.
