New Hires Beware

Pros

My review covers only the corporate office. There are no pros for that area.

Cons

Visual Pak is a collection of packaging companies that exist under one corporate umbrella. This umbrella encompasses Recruitment, HR and EHS. The company makes hiring and firing decisions on a constant basis, which is why few people have been there longer than 2 years. This company has no integrity from a corporate standpoint. The corporate umbrella supposedly exists to support the member packaging companies. Unfortunately, since these companies are effectively 'clients', it means that their decisions are made to cater to these companies. THAT INCLUDES SAFETY. They have the most atrocious safety record I have ever seen in my entire career and they have no intention to fix it. In the last eight months, they have cut corporate staff by close to half and have lost major business. Everyone is stressed and the bosses are extremely negative. You will receive no direction and your ideas will be shot down. They hire some positions just so they "have them" and look good to the member companies. For these reasons, I caution anyone looking at a job offering by Visual Pak. They continue to hire even though they have no intention of maintaining employees.

Pros

The day you leave this company

Cons

Here is the jist of this company that was once something, recently they have allowed one of their top salesmen to buy into ownership and is now running the operations of the business. This leadership is only out for himself and his core people which were on his team and still manages his business. Also there is conflict of interest among his leadership because he has family members in his core group that he shows favoritism to. Overall how the company is run is to get one individual as wealthy as possible while the other outsiders that are the real heart and sole of the company get taken advantage of and are treated with no respect while being given unattainable expectations in their jobs and being pushed to work ridiculous hours. Other owners are truly unseen and unheard from as they have other interests and treat this company more as a side note with potential extra income in their pockets. General Manager never worked in freight and has no idea what he is doing. He is also a very untrustworthy individual and only plays to his new leadership. Overall this is a small to mid brokerage with not much growth over the past few years as the industry has changed and causing these size companies to close their doors. Overall there is no career path at this company and over the last few years have had more than 70% of their staff quit or be let go.

Lack of GOOD Management

Recommend

Business outlook

Pros

Good core of employees that care about making money. These are the employees who been here since the good days of management.

Cons

Management SUCKS.. Got 3 carrier managers that can't figure out a thing and customer side is a complete free-for- all. When I started over year ago I thought this place had a great upside with growing business but, with key management quitting and veterans leaving the place has been on rapid decline. To many close door meeting with management maybe something good can come out of them instead having employees thinking somethings going to change or get worst over here.
