Pros

g the busy season, it is chaotic, stressful but so rewarding to see how much gets accomplished in such a short amount of time. There's always something new to learn every day. Day to day can be repetitive and not really wired for people that need constant stimulation. There's a big learning curve if one doesn't have perishable or logistics knowledge. They have implemented leadership classes for people who are interested in advancing their careers and that's a great benefit.

Cons

Training is hit or miss depending on who is training you. Everyone has a different way of doing things so you can get it right with one person but another person will tell you it's incorrect. There isn't room for advancement past a Lead position. People in management positions have been there a long time, which speaks highly on low turnover rate. There isn't enough parking for every employee. That is a daily headache for people without parking spots.

Pros

Great place to learn the freight forwarding business.

Cons

Management makes too many promises and very short on delivery. Takes advantages of employees through corrercive and manipulative tactics; failure to comply is used against you in performance reviews. Pay raises are a joke; they thrive on keeping employees working at or near poverty level wages. Many employees are out of here once they find a better paying job with organizations that treat them better.
