Trailer Bridge Reviews

When I originally started at Trailer Bridge, it was a great company or so it seemed. Through the years it has morphed into any other corporate company that you find across America. Employees are expected to forgo family time, vacation time in order to get the job done, yet, upper management rarely does anything. Upper management also has the audacity to ridicule their employees when asking for raises. Comments have been made about how employees need to manage their money better and if they don’t like it, to leave, all the while the pay at Trailer Bridge is incredibly low. Comments like this are extremely hurtful and not conducive of a healthy work environment. The CEO also makes millions of dollars every year and instead of spending it on raises, proceeds to spend it on parties, food trucks and things that do not help the employees pay their bills. Everyone at this company that’s been there for a while touts the were a Family slogan, but in reality, it’s all an act. I can really say is it’s not the worst job you’ll ever have, but it’s not the best. Will you be able to pay your bills? Most likely not. Will you meet some cool people? Most likely. Take a job here at your own risk.

Where to begin? First let me start off by saying I was not fired and to be honest I probably would have stayed had they gave me a raise like they promise a lot of people after working there a year. But there was always some excuse as to why I couldn’t get it. I also know people who have worked there for years and keep getting denied raises. Second, do not read the good reviews from CURRENT employees. The ones who have left willingly or were fired for some BS reason are the ones who don’t have to fear losing their jobs anymore and will be honest. Unless you are upper management or kiss upper managements butt you won’t go anywhere. You’re scared to use PTO because you’re afraid of not having a job when you get back. Or they encourage you not to use it. (Not my experience this is others WHO CURRENTLY WORK THERE) You CANNOT trust anyone in upper management. Period. No matter what they say about confidentiality, IT IS A LIE. If you are not upper management, you are just a step in the CEO’s ladder to success and you are not cared about. Anything they tell you about “family oriented” is a lie.
