Pros

There are no pro's to working for this company.

Cons

This companies maintenance program is the worst in the industry. You drive old worn out equipment and when it breaks down you either sit for weeks with little pay while they figure out what there doing or they give you another worn out truck to use. They have us go to vendors that dont know what there doing instead of going to a company shop with company mechanics thats not far away. The pay is horrible also my last week there i delivered 3 loads and barely made $500. That is why i left. Also there is no management you dont know who your boss is cause it changes all the time. When you have a problem you spend hours and hours trying to get ahold of someone with a brain that can help you.

Pros

Never a dull moment, its a faced paced company where things can change at the drop of a hat. If you like not being bored to death just clocking in hours, you will like this place. The company promotes within and the President could not be a nicer guy.

Cons

Long Hours and Low pay.

Pros

MOST employees are helpful and caring. Most everyone worked well together. Corporate has a great office, with a gym and a cafeteria. Plenty of room for advancement IF you know the right people. They do have a decent company picnic, though the past couple of years it has gone downhill and is pretty much a joke now. They do have a tent for the balloon festivities in July, however, that does make up for the company picnic's quality.

Cons

Starting hourly pay is barely above minimum wage for what people do there, salary is actually lower than that because you are expected to work more hours without overtime. There was no personal time, no sick time, no anything, Every time you had to call off, they counted it and used it against you every chance you got. They will jump on every chance they can to write you up in the billing department until you leave. The billing manager is a joke. You only advance if she likes you. If she doesnt, she makes your life hell until you quit or she fires you. NO ONE can advance to into the logistics department unless you are a child of someone higher up or your parents play golf or grew up with someone higher up. Dispatchers work insane amount of hours and dont get vacation time or anything. Salary employees work way too many hours for way too little pay and in one department, the management is not even real management, just some guy pretending to know how to do his job because his employees are doing it for him and he takes the credit. He doesnt even have a degree, even though that is one of the mandatory qualifications of a department manager. There is probably more than one of these "managers" there at KAG like this. They are suck ups so they get ahead, no other reason, certainly not for their job skills or ethics. This company really doesnt value their employees at all. Making money is their number one priority and acquiring more smaller companies to add to their roster. They dont care if an employee is overworked, stressed out, and sick. They dont care if one of their departments is corrupted and they are treating the employees badly, even though complaints have been made to HR. HR covers it up too. Just a bad company to work for unless you know someone in upper management or are related to someone up there in the upper offices.
