Pros

Everything- and I mean EVERYTHING- has the green/orange thing going on.

Cons

I can honestly say I left PLS because of the slow computers and bad IT support. I wasn't able to meet the 220 calls a day because the computers weren't up to the task of loading the stuff I needed to interface with customers. IT's answer was basically "that's as good as it gets- you have the same equipment as everybody else."

Pros

Very Easy to get your foot in the door as they prey on newly graduated college students

Cons

Very short time span for the learning curve to become familiar with a very complicated industry full of rules and regulations. -Training is a joke -CEO openly threats staff if they leave to a different company they will be sued.

Pros

You are your own boss - if you put in the time & effort,you can be very successful. Cold calling is not for everyone, you need to be a different type of person to work here. You can build solid relationships with customers you bring in. Philly office has a beautiful view

Cons

Working with truck drivers/trucking companies on a daily basis is not easy but its part of the job... you need thick skin. Long hours = 50 hour weeks and a very unproductive 4 hour Saturday shift each month For the amount of time and effort required to make it at PLS, the pay is very low. Management needs to establish a solid pay increase as AET's hit their benchmarks and as they continue to grow in order to make it worth being here. $38k salary doesn't cut it. No 401k match Poor TMS system - there are talks of a new system coming out but it has not been fully released. Very strict on which companies get credit lines to move freight. I've seen countless AET's get excited about finally landing an account they've been working on, only for upper management/CFO to tell them the new customer will have to Pre-pay in order to work with us. In-office management seems to take heavy pressure from upper management and it trickles down to the rest of the employees. CEO doesn't seem to understand how the company actually works... just the numbers on the income statement.
