Dray Alliance Reviews

Where to even start. A company that can't figure out what it is or what it wants to be. Meetings to talk up management and play pretend while we rot from the inside. High fives for showing up, but they don't care enough to treat employees right (e.g. PTO, fair pay, you name it). In a few, short months the company deleted women from management roles and now it's a room full of men who think they know more than you, while operations associates - who are mostly women - do the grunt work and heavy lifting. There are two realities here. One where the well-paid managers and CEO live and they talk about "crushing it" and "all that growth." Seriously, don't get me started on the self-congratulations from management for doing as little as possible. And the other reality that we live in: the daily hellscape of dealing with garbage systems and getting blamed when containers bleed cash (because of said garbage systems). No one dares to point out the fact the tools are built with the quality of a shoddy straw tent in the eye of a tornado. And they act all surprised when the house blows down. This is not a joke. Welcome to Dray Alliance. Stay away.

Huge decrease in women in management since I started. They will not fight to keep essential members on the team and would rather let us struggle with being poorly trained and understaffed than offer a competitive pay to members that have done the work to learn the industry. Operations team members are expected to be account managers, help draft the company goals, troubleshoot the tech and catch mistakes of other teams without competitive pay or titles that match our responsibilities. We know that no one team can take credit for the company's successes, but the more we are allowed to make suggestions across teams the more attitude we receive as if we think too highly of ourselves to assume our suggestions will be applied or are a priority. They claim to offer growth opportunities but everyone that was promoted within ops in my time (1+ year) quit due to lack of competitive pay and being over-worked. They will praise us for our hard work and contributions to improving ops/the tech, then create a new position based on our complaints and suggestions and reserve it for new hires with no industry experience. How are we supposed to trust that we have a future with a company that asks us to go above and beyond expectations but shows us that they will not promote from within? Actions speak louder than months old promises, and I want this company to offer us a vision for the future rather than make us fight tooth and nail to create that vision ourselves, with no guarantee that we will even be considered to fulfill it ourselves.
