AIT Worldwide Logistics reviews

Where to start.... for the first year or so the supervisor (who is no longer there. She quit) who over seen the department had no clue how to assist anyone in the department. She was never there. Found out she was having an affair with a married manager which is why she got away with so much. On top of that there were no reviews, no raises, insurance went way up, HR doesn’t know much of anything. The hours were long but doable.

Over worked and not properly compensated for the time put in. I did not have a raise for the last 3 years I was with the company, despite my department having consistent growth in both revenue and profits year over year. I begged for help and only after a year plus of begging was I finally given some relief. Upper management talked a big game about work-life balance, but talking is all they did. Meanwhile, many of them had plenty of time out of the office with their families while the rest of us were working late into the evening. I was told corporate considered my profit share bonuses my raise, but we all know profits don't last forever and the economy will eventually affect that. It is extremely unfair for the employees to pay the price when bad times come around again. My base cost of living rises every year - as does everyone's - so not getting a raise in 3 years was basically a pay cut each year. Other employees told me they had never received a raise and some had been with the company for 5-7 years or more. I was consistently told by my managers and directors I was one of, if not the best operator in the company and my department never had the recurring issues other departments had, but they never showed it with proper compensation. A private equity firm bought into the company last year and it seems as if things began to change after that. The company has lost its way culturally. They like to make a big deal about company culture, but their execution was way off. There were a lot of inter-departmental turf wars and stations many times only looked out for themselves with no regard to sister-stations - there were exceptions to this, but not often. Regarding benefits, the 401k match was very mediocre at best and you aren't fully vested for like 5 years I think. I was STUNNED at how expensive the health insurance was when I started working there. As a single person expect to pay at least $500 a month out of your own pocket and as a family you will need to take on a second job! Factor the high out of pocket health insurance costs into your initial salary negotiations - I wish I had!
