Pros

Co-workers were friendly, Office is clean and new. In all honestly I can't come up with 20 words to say are PROS for working there. It's just a dead end job that fills the void till something better comes along. A means to an end.

Cons

The Ownership and management is the real problem with FreightCenter. They are truly greedy, self-centered and arrogant, and they will prove this to you in the morning meetings. FreightCenter believes in treating highly paid & skilled employees like they are disposable workers. To say FreightCenter is a revolving door is an understatement. In my almost 2 years with FreightCenter I seen 8 highly skilled employees get fired or walkout in frustration, a total lack of respect for talent and never once heard anyone say "Thank you" for going above and beyond. The FreightCenter way is work people as hard as they can till they break then replace them. Work there at your own Risk.

Pros

The coworkers are generally good people who don't mind helping you out even if costs them some time. Had a few who really helped me out with shipments when I wasn't there.

Cons

The pay sucks and to make any kind of decent money you need to hit sales goals. These goals are almost always not attainable unless you hit the jackpot with a new account that ships a ton. Management will try and steer accounts away from newer people so good luck with that. Ridiculously micromanaged by people who don't care about you since they figure you'll leave soon anyway. When interviewed, was told cold calling was practically non-existent but that is the go to response from a supervisor when you ask for leads. A supervisor once claimed you wouldn't get paid for time already worked if you made any kind of time error because they were tired of correcting mistakes. Turnover is insane, at times there were multiple people who quit a day and they still fired those who didn't hit monthly goals regardless of what they'd done in the past. Outside of a few employees and supervisors pretty much everyone started within the past year. There are constant new training classes and talk of expansion yet often people ran out of leads and were told to cold call. Starting hours are ridiculous, you won't be able to work a normal schedule until you've been there a year or so and as previously stated no one lasts that long.
