Absolutely love this company and it’s culture. In the Americas region, leadership from the executive team is top notch and you not only see the changes but also feel the commitment to “Primus” our commitment to one team.

Pros

the systems are horrible and not at all user friendly. Company has tons of ridiculous policies. Pay you so cheap and will let you drowning in work and then tell you that what youre working so slow. I'm counting days until I leave Schenker

Cons

i like my coworkers. Not always get along with them but for the most parts they are nice and easy to work with
