Pros

If you want to further your education or you are between jobs and just need something temporary this is the ideal place. This is not a long term career path.

Cons

Ups-Scs has bought out allot of competitors over the past 8 years. They keep dead weight on payroll and you seriously question what it is exactly these people do. . Most of the long term employees are near retirement age and are just there to receive a paycheck. The pay is extremely unfair. example - one person that only audits files makes 45K annually with the same level of education as someone that does much more complex and detailed work that only makes 28K annually. HR is useless and tells you to call the 800 # anytime you have any questions or concerns. Management staff for the most part are lacking in basic people skills and intelligence. There is allot of management staff in comparison to hourly employees. Very high turn over ratio even in today's hard economy and very stressful work due to incompetent/inept management. high turn over in customers as well due to the above mentioned incompetence. Ups-Scs is the most expensive brokerage service provider and the least compensating to their people.

Pros

Exactly what previous person said, if you're a full-time student this job is great. Allows flexible hours since they pay you hourly wages not salary.

Cons

Everything. Management sees you as a working drone. Always looking to increase productivity but they never provide a substantial plan. "This month we need to produce 20 files per day as opposed to the 5 per day currently produced". But they never actually tell you how workers should make their productivity go from 100% to 400%. There's only so much one person can do in one day. Especially when you don't want to pay them over time. They never address any strategies to reach their goal. Pay is horrible. And when they make an error in pay (very frequently) you have to put up quite a fight to get your money back. I was being paid at one job level lower than what I held for about 3 years until I found out. When I finally pointed it out to them they made it seem like they were doing me a favour to pay at the level they should have been paying me at 3 years earlier. Not to mention they didn't add on all the 2% increases I had gained over the years. Another time they forgot to pay out my accumulated vacation pay for the whole year. When I took it to HR they finally paid me... but somehow paid me short. Any advancement is somehow considered a lateral move. They're willing to give you larger accounts to be responsible for with a higher workload and stress levels but somehow it's not warranted even a 5 cent increase.... how does it make sense? All in all, work here only if you're desperate.

Pros

steady employment, mostly intelligent co-workers, decent facilities, lots of rah-rah if you like that sort of thing, very process-oriented, lots of challenges

Cons

as someone who came from a company that was acquired by UPS and merged into SCS, it was clear that we were regarded as second-rate by the top management that grew up in UPS Brown. Much of their goal was to take the many-faceted international logistics world and re-model it so it would look just like the enormous package-processing machine that is UPS, run by engineers who want to fit a round peg into a square hole.
