Pros

Office supplies are readily available - it's amazing that they spend so much $$$ on pens and staplers but when it comes time for raises they have alligator arms.

Cons

No support and no leadership in the human resources department in Long Beach - matter of fact there is no leadership at all here. Questions and suggestions go unanswered for weeks before getting shot down. The finance group here equally smells and lacks continuity and direction. This industry is old and stogie this no innovation and managers who are resistant to change and improvements. Their CS2 (customer service) rollout and training was a joke and continues to be ignored actions the board - they as rude to each other internally as they are to the customers.

Pros

Steady work with consistent OT. Pay is average. They employ a minimal number of drivers (and equipment) so you will definitely get your hours. If someone leaves, takes PTO, or a truck goes down, it gets spread across the remaining drivers.

Cons

Benefits are average at best. Most drivers are expected to work holidays. PTO is approved on seniority basis so don’t plan on being home with family during these times. No shortage of micromanagement. Definitely feel like a line item on a spreadsheet somewhere and not a human.
