Pros

Extremely ethical senior management team Good benefits and Good work environment Overall a good group of employees Those with more than 5 years with MWV are generally very proud of where they work CEO has a vision that seems to be working, unfortunately he is the only one who knows where we are going (this is a pro and a con) Hard work is often rewarded - but you have to be sure your work is known

Cons

Vision of senior management not communicated clearly (lost of words but not a lot of specific information) Dead wood floats to the top too often Lots of personnel churn breads uneasiness in the workforce, however if you are self directed you will be fine Many new hire have a 'what's in it for me' attitude and do not seek to contribute to the big picture and longevity of the company

Pros

Great pay, easy work, plenty of hours.

Cons

Some of the people who work in the warehouses are lazy and they have the so called manager wrapped around their finger, So you end up doing their job and yours. The manager won’t do anything because he is just as lazy as the warehouse guy. And is scared of the consequences if he actually does his job and disciplines the sorry ———‘s So the real workers are the only ones that suffer. That very manager told me two weeks before becoming the manager over the shipping department that he didn’t think he would become the manager because he had already told the other managers that we have to stop over working our real workers to cover up for our non workers. I told him that night he would be the same way as soon as he got the position, And if he did that I would be the first to tell him. Point being: If you are a lazy piece of trash and have no self respect or work ethics this is the place for you. Bad thing is that you can not get in touch with anyone that has any interest in cleaning up (this particular terminal ) of a very good company.
