Pros

Being able to contribute to the development of SOPs.

Cons

The hours. You really will be expected to work any hours. This was actually said, “I don’t care if you run the best shift in the building, consideration for promotion will be determined on how much you do for this company on your time.” Leaders are not given a department to run. All supervisors are expected to share responsibility for the entire shift/building. Turnover in the first year was about 60% for salaried exempt. Every time someone would leave or get fired, upper management would essentially shrug their shoulders. There are some schools of thought that believe increased turnover (whether forced or voluntary) weeds out the weak and creates competition to stay employed. It is my belief that this location follows that philosophy. If you absolutely need a job then apply here, but don’t expect it to be a long term career move.

Pros

You will meet some of the best people here and can learn the basics of being a freight broker if this is the career path you choose.

Cons

eadership is deeply ineffective and lacks even a basic understanding of how to run a successful business. There is a clear disconnect between management and the sales team, with decisions being made in a vacuum that ignore real operational and customer-facing challenges. While leadership claims to prioritize operations, execution is consistently poor and performance continues to decline. There is also a noticeable lack of accountability and consistency across the organization. Processes are not enforced equally, and favoritism impacts outcomes—particularly when it comes to freight handling. If you are not running TM freight, your shipments are treated as a lower priority and handled with significantly less care, which ultimately reflects poorly on both employees and the company as a whole. Overall, the environment is disorganized, leadership is out of touch, and there is little confidence that meaningful improvements will be made
