Pros
Great office location. Peers were helpful. Good experience. I love sales and continued doing sales after this. I am so appreciative for the opportunity to dip my foot into the world of sales.
Cons
1. No care for employees. Dennis Perri, the South Side Manager, berated me for not working when I took my wife to the hospital for a heart attack. 2. The product I sold was awful. I never beat a competitor in price, quality, or convenience. When I asked management for some success stories to help me understand our product's value, they said, "Your job is to make money for the company. Figure it out." Personally, I have to believe in the product I sell. All my sales came from phenomenal service (me.) 3.They have a model they want you to follow, however the model frequently breaks down. It takes hours out of your day to fix it, on top of everything else. Either provide quality IT or allow solutions that work. Greg Burns' model does not invest into human capital. When people decry "Uncaring Corporate America," PLS Logistics is the poster child. Other non-asset based 3PLs companies invest in their people at least a little bit. Not PLS. And this mentality is reflected in the management they hire.
