Pros

Bekins pays well above local related positions and offers great benefits but that does not make up for the negative environment.

Cons

I have never had issues at any of my prior workplaces. While at Bekins, I worked in the Electronics Department so all views are reflected from experiences while there: •Bekins has some great employees, but it seemed that no matter how hard you worked, they still put all the focus on minor mistakes that were made, rather than the achievements accomplished. •There is no job security and you are micromanaged to the max with all busy work. •Leadership does not hold themselves accountable for any mistakes and failures on their part, but instead will place blame on those below them. •Very negative work environment, most employees enjoy the company until a few months in, turnover rate is not due to “being the wrong fit” it is due to the poor treatment of their employees. •Every minor or major mistake made is held against you by leadership. Job description is changed bi-weekly. •No matter the pay at Bekins it is not worth the negativity and treatment you receive from those around you and that you then place and believe about yourself. If you voice any concerns about the workplace it is told to everyone around you with no confidentiality. Everything you say is reported to higher management and kept on your record. Don’t waste your time entertaining employment at this company, like everyone else you will be looking for a new job shortly after. There are little to no morals from leadership at Bekins. I was asked 3 times on my last day after giving my 2 week notice to leave a positive review on Glassdoor. I can promise you that all negative reviews on here are truthful and commonly felt by all those employed or previously employed at Bekins.

Pros

The people you work with are in the trenches with you and for the most part have your back.

Cons

Management. There is no accountability when management makes mistakes or bad decisions. I was repeatedly asked why I did something one way, and when I pointed out that I laid out the risks and asked to do it a different way but was overruled, and then asked again why I did the task the way I was told. I was lied to almost constantly by management and can guarantee they will never be held accountable for their lies and that they are continuing to lie to my coworkers and their customers. I should have se All the five star reviews are either by HR, who does everything to cover for management, or employees told to give good reviews. Don't believe them. I should have been less blind to the red flags when I was told on my first day by my boss that they were taking on all the risk in "investing in me and my skills".
