Pros

They hire you with little to no exp, base salary is better than nothing. Co-workers are usually fun people.

Cons

I would bet that most of the positive reviews were written by HR, which speaks for itself. They do not care about your career. Most employees are always worried about getting fired, including skilled people who are truly giving it their all. To be successful here, you are up against an unfair amount of obstacles compared to other entry level jobs.

Pros

Learned a lot about logistics.

Cons

Job was very stressful and worked long hours. Had been told "you get out what you put in", but most of what you "get" happens with luck and timing. Hated the meetings after people were let go to "reassure" us our job was safe.. bogus. If you have one bad month no matter the circumstance you can pretty much kiss it goodbye. I also didn't understand the point of hiring such huge classes for a few months, fire a bunch of people and then no more hiring for months? What happens.. those who are supposed to be working on their new book of business are now also supposed to answer the phone more and help others out etc... there was team work, but not really. Those who had been there a long time didn't care about anyone else and still got away with it. And the games being "taken away until numbers are up" is ridiculous. We are supposed to be adults and have adult jobs, but treated like children? Don't tell me I'm allowed to take a break here and there, yet feel like all eyes on me if I choose to spend that break on a game for a few min... seriously hypocritical.

Pros

Commission based position which allows you to earn what your worth. Level of effort is directly related to the paycheck that is collected. More casual environment than some places. Management has relaxed the dress code which is a plus. Management is also trying to keep moral positive by having contests, lunches, etc. We try to all find humor in our daily routines!

Cons

Commission based pay can be a con as well. Common fluctuations in the market and create ups and downs in your customer's daily shipments, which affect your pay. Lack of efficiency in other departments can be concerning when those departments are a part of your day to day. It would be nice to have a compensation plan to accomodate vacations and holidays. Hours can be long. If this is a first job out of college, it may be an "awakening". It is not easy.
