      Wouldn’t suggest!!

      Pros

      The other forklift drivers seem to be pretty good people.

      Cons

      Where to begin! Management so far in my short while there have lied about multiple things. The mandatory ot is a complete joke working 6 days a week 12 hour shift. Unless you don’t desire any time for yourself or your family this is your place, otherwise if you can I’d steer as far away as possible!!

      A reasonable place to start off from but…

      Import/export specialist

      Pros

      If you put in the effort, you will be able to get a good amount of experience from this place. Most departments tend to have tons of OT available. Most decisions, with very few exceptions, are left to the discretion of the overseeing manager so if you’re happy with the manager, then you’ll be fairly happy.

      Cons

      Management is heavy, too much upper management Management is not very communicative, lack of direction, any motivation, etc. Management usually turns over every 4-6 years There are usually a good amount of questionable hires and usually have relationships with the hiring manager Very limited on pay in industry, we used to be on the higher end but now have drifted far below the average. Culture is dependent on department but corporate culture is severely lacking Bonuses and other pluses (like holiday bonuses) pretty much don’t exist unless you’re in sales

      Employees have horrible attitudes and are ignorant

      Forklift operator

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Pay was really nice, probably potentially made more than supervisors, supervisors were very nice and polite. Some of the people there were very nice and polite as well, and they made you feel comfortable and welcome.

      Cons

      Lots of overtime, always worried about losing your job over a take over, some of the employees were mean and nasty and miserable.
