Pros

Due to the rate of employee turnover there are always available jobs.

Cons

This company promises to be the cutting edge of logistics with its fancy software that in truth is underdeveloped and falls far short of their vision. Management doesn't know which way the company is going, you'll be told changes are happening just to be told something different in a week. Upper management can't see and isn't interested in how to get from what they have now to what they want but expects you to get them there. Implementing any kind of change is nearly impossible and you'll get stopped mid-sentence if you try to install something that the branch manager didn't think up. Lower management micromanages employees then has to get everything explained, clearly doesn't know how to manage a team. You'll have extra work thrust upon you with zero compensation, this company doesn't give raises or so management has told me. Offers lower wages than competitors, no commission, and requires you sign a non-compete/non-recruit. PTO is extremely low starting out and sick days are nearly non-existent. You might think that asking for more PTO over a raise would be a good strategy but you'll get denied that too. Negotiating at the beginning of employment is likely your best bet but don't expect this company to honor what you negotiated. Clearly this company doesn't value employee retention. So if you like secret meeting, incompetent management, low wages and benefits, a lack of company direction, and be expected to work solely for the benefit of the company's software development then by all means apply. However, you'll soon realize that this is not just another day in logistics paradise.

Pros

Colleagues are wonderful people. New building was designed well and provides a nice common lunch area.

Cons

There is a massive lack of open or transparent communication with employees and leadership. Only a few select people are chosen to receive information from the manager. There is a lot of political drama and an uneasy culture among leadership. It feels like there is a major sense of mistrust and micro management without having the opportunity to have one-on-one conversations with your own manager. There is a constant feeling of gossip and employees are fired on the regular without any notice. Navegate used to be a fun and exciting place to work but we don't ever receive any communication about how our company is doing and what our plans for the future are. It does not seem like employees are valued and the culture has taken a huge turn for the worse over the last year. There is also a feeling of not being about to grow individual within the company and there are not many employees who have been promoted.

Pros

There really is not any pros.

Cons

Very negative working environment and extremely unorganized. Horrible accounting and invoice entry. Micro-management by a particular owner of the company and hounding on a daily basis, along with harassing emails, phone calls and offensive language. There is no positivity or benefit to being employed here.
