Middle and upper management have no vision on how to handle distribution of workload. Management lacks vision of growing the company in a positive manner. If you don't like it you can leave. Huge turnover of staff.

Pros

Co-wokers are great. Customers are great. Nice work flow. Good with needing to leave early or come late.

Cons

Management SUCKS!! They need serious structural training. They lie wayyyyyy to much. They have family and friends working under each other, which means it the other workers are out of luck. NEPOTISM in the MAX! They lack training so bad that the even go as far as withholding employees check to cover demurage on containers. Never knew OSHA to be okay with that???

Pros

Two bonuses, expected in February & September.

Cons

Company learning material is highly dependent on existing colleagues. Prepared notes on day-to-day operations will mainly be learnt through colleagues; there is limited material to work on. Work traffic is highly dependent on inbound email traffic. Small company, with limited members in Irish premises; not much room to rise in the current hierarchy. Management within Albatrans places more time & knowledge on specific members, favouritism. ERP system is an antiquated system, heavily reliant on paper usage. No means of updating current processes to more mainstream sustainable measures. Condescending/demeaning demeanor from certain staff members has created a difficult work environment, and it is honestly quite unpleasant to work within these confines. There is no HR within Albatrans; if you are seeking assistance on any difficult circumstances with members of staff; there is no support. Certain colleagues were given the privilege to have a hybrid system, whereby the majority of staff are forced to be in the office during working hours. knowledge attained from customs course, and with the intention to be applied within the company, where neglected; the majority of the custom clearance work was achieved by one staff member. Workplace social gossip is snotty and toxic. Maritime freight is volatile on demand/supply periods causing fluctuating work levels periods.
