Pros

None because it was horrible.

Cons

Sales reps treat the customer service workers like crap throwing the orders on our desk and telling us they need to get that order in the system right away.

Pros

Large customer base 90% plus Fortun 1000 penetration. Stable 100yr old company

Cons

100 yr old mentality when addressing growth markets, speak to taking risk into new markets but action is extremely risk adverse

Pros

pay was 17/hr I guess

Cons

Work here if you want to but don't be a driver. One of the worst experiences of my life. You'll be ready to go with the materials and they'll tell you they forgot some things and add more stuff where you have to leave later than when you wanted. You will get blamed for everything that goes wrong. Having this done every now and then is fine but the fact that it becomes a constant thing is when it starts to eat at you. After a few months of being there, there started to be a favoritism towards a particular driver which led them to getting short routes all the time and that to me is utter bs since the routes are (or were) supposed to change every day. The warehouse people think they own you and can boss you every which way. I will end it here because I am tired of typing but know this is not even a quarter of the bs that you will go through as a driver here. STAY AWAY.
