Pros

Great people to work for, Its a small company so its easy to jump in and feel like part of the family, sky is the limit.

Cons

Raises are few and far between. Reviews/Raises rarely happen and if they do its usually random. Salaried employees are treated more like hourly-It shows your amount broken down by hour on your paystub, if the office is closed (black friday) you have to take PTO or you wont get paid. They are ok with you working 80 hours a week but if you work less than 40 they dont pay you. They expect you to work all the time, vacation is frowned upon, flexibility is minimal. No Christmas Party- Most people would think this is not a big deal, but having a Christmas party is a way to say "Thanks" to all of your employees.That would cost Dohrn money so it doesnt happen.

Pros

At the terminal level, people are friendly and very focused on doing their job well. Everyone has their quirks but for the most part people work hard and do as they need to.

Cons

Suits in Rock Island are very keen on making decisions regarding terminal-level staff on a last-minute basis, often resulting in mass firings in random waves. Turnover tends to be very high and different parts of the terminal are always constantly short staffed. Pay is low for the level of work required and recognition for performance is never met with a pay increase or acknowledgment from management.
