I feel a bit immature writing such a negative review about a former employer. But, if it saves at least one person from going to this company, it's worth it.
I accepted my offer back in January while I was just finishing up college. I was a very qualified candidate and should have weighed out my options. I saw the promise of hard work paying off financially and I bit, as do plenty of other recent graduates looking to move to Chicago.
The reality of Arrive Logistics is that it's a machine. You're not special by any means here. You're simply another cog in the logistics engine. Anyone that can pick up a phone and dial will get a job here and will be slave driven into doing it until you're more beaten down than ever. You will work 10 hours a day without a lunch break. You will get some bad looks if you go to the bathroom one too many times. You'll be paid minimum wage for months on end. If you don't live in Chicago, you won't be able to visit your family for Christmas because you'll be working. If you're willing enough to somehow make it through all this for 8 months, you then will reap the benefits. Oh not to mention there's no internal growth.
If you're a somewhat qualified candidate such as me, don't waste your time. Go to an opportunity that cares about you, doesn't exploit you, pays better, and lets you have a life outside of the office.
