Pros

Personal relationships formed within the company with colleagues. Employees are lovely, but overlooked which can cause bad work culture. A couple managers stand out while the rest are questionable. Intentions mean well with handovers but the resources aren’t there to help train newbies while keeping up with your own work while managers expect fast progress with new employees with hardly to no experience. Be a good citizen committee but have not been active as it used to be Morning yes and celebration of events like woman’s day etc Townhall meetings

Cons

Roles that should be replaced are replaced by people with no or hardly any experience paid peanuts expected to do the workload of two people processes are messy and not followed it’s all over the place Due to too much work with too little experience staff long term staff are left to pick up all the slack and work messed by others who don’t care Host can be good if you fight for it yourself Restructure every few months/ year in hopes for a better outcome when it confuses processes, roles and responsibility

Pros

You will meet some incredible people here to personally network with.

Cons

Leadership is very of of touch , no real sense of direction comes from this Company, Training is mainly about motivated you to exhaust yourself to calling any and everyone in the country who " Look to have freight coming in". No real learning as far how to get a solid footing into the business. Best thing they thought they was teaching was how to follow trends when looking for freights but any salesperson does that with whatever field they are in so I learned nothing but how to seek out a company who is actually going to put you in a position to succeed so you can be a positive stamp on the company.
