Pros

plenty of low level jobs,pay scale just below industry standard,a great place to start your work career,a great place for first time employment,like mcdonalds,walmart etc

Cons

con is a great word,gallop poll questions doesnt really ask employees what they think ,negitive or positive just subjective,management encourages employees to vote all positive believe it or not,this way they show that employees are very happy,when in reality employee votes are superfiscal.pay scales below industry standard.upper marnagement not in touch with blue collar base,computer system light years behind industry standards,heavy equipment,trucks ,lifts,are outdated,which has put this company on the department of transportations safety watch list

Pros

None during my time there.

Cons

Drivers Beware. Misleading job expectations: Hired as a boom driver, but expected to perform multiple roles. The common phrase used is “everyone does everything,” which means you are also functioning as a warehouse worker. They won't disclose that. Warehouse responsibilities: Drivers are expected to pick and prepare their own orders, including pulling and wrapping materials before deliveries. Physical labor beyond job scope: Boom drivers are required to manually deliver heavy items such as doors, windows, and cabinets into homes, rather than using equipment as advertised. You will carry items into homes. Equipment expectations: Required to operate multiple types of trucks (boom, box truck, semi, moffett), often switching throughout the day. NO SET SCHEDULE. Disorganized workflow: No structured daily plan—only the first stop is known. Orders are frequently not ready, resulting in repeated trips back to the warehouse and significant downtime loading your own truck. Poor communication: Lack of coordination between management and staff; expectations and instructions are often unclear. Inadequate training: Very limited hands-on boom training Sent for NCCCO certification after only two weeks on the job. Unrealistic expectations to pass with minimal experience Onboarding issues: Disorganized process with little support for new hires Timekeeping errors: Hours were inaccurately recorded and required correction Management concerns: Unprofessional communication from branch management Reimbursement issues: Initial resistance to paying mileage and tolls despite prior agreement Boom Drivers Beware this review is specific to the Tinton Falls, NJ branch. Other locations may operate differently. However, frequent hiring for boom driver roles—especially during peak season—raises concerns about high turnover.
