Pros

My previous company was acquired by Redwood, and while those transitions typically can be difficult, it has been a very positive experience. The environment on the floor is electric, the people are great...... very easy to work with. I work on the procurement side, which can breed contempt from rep to rep due to the competitive nature of the job, but there is a real sense of team here. Everybody, more or less, is on the same page, which is refreshing. There are also multiple avenues in which an employee can grow in terms of career mobility. There's also a lot of different branches of the company......so if you find you're an employee that is struggling in whichever department you may be in, I've seen firsthand that Redwood doesn't just cut you loose, they'll look to find the best fit within the company. Overall, i have been very happy in my experiences here.

Cons

Any way you look at it, RW is a freight brokerage, if you've worked at one, and you just hate the line of work, that's not going to change.

Pros

Redwood has a great culture with a number of opportunities for internal growth. They have a unique business offering to a robust industry that sets them apart from competitors. You feel supported by your peers and leaders. Leadership is not afraid to help, teach and back up their teams, no matter the task.

Cons

The logistics industry, and Redwood’s role within it, is fast-paced and dynamic, offering employees the opportunity to build strong organizational and relationship-management skills. Success in this environment requires staying proactive, adaptable, and responsive to client needs. At times, client demands can be urgent and may extend beyond standard business hours, including evenings or weekends. While this can be challenging, it also provides an opportunity to demonstrate commitment, problem-solving, and a high level of service. Given the transactional nature of the industry, the effort invested may not always feel immediately reciprocated. However, this is a common aspect of working in a brokerage environment and can ultimately lead to long-term relationship building, professional growth, and a deeper understanding of the business.
