Great people work together with a horrible business model.#therichgetricher

Pros

Great coworkers who are always willing to help. Relaxed office environment Rollout Celebrations. Glassdoor needs 20 word minimum so this is how I will complete the Pros for PLS

Cons

No Sales support. One week of Sales training and it's really nothing special. manager typically more concerned about the office leaders Leads are given to people already having a successful book of business #richgetricher Constant target on your back because of sales benchmark....haven't seen a sales job that will can you after 1-3 months of sales because you didn't necessary get to the benchmark Timing can be an issue when you do get customers because they simply aren't too busy that time of year for freight Might be a little sour since I got canned, but don't think you can judge someones sales aptitude in 1-3 months..... High turnover rate compare it to the University of Kentucky's one and done

The only good thing about working at PLS were the co-workers, and the overall atmosphere at work. Everyone is always available and willing to help.

Cons

low-paying job, greedy CEO and upper management who do not care about their employees whatsoever, high turnover rate, very little of moving up in the company.

Pros

Will be working with a young group. Socializing at happy hours and sometimes through out the work day

Cons

There is absolutely nothing that PLS does that makes them stand out from the already over saturation of the logistics/transportation field. You will be calling one person who receives the exact same phone call from 40 other people saying the same thing. This is not a real sales position. All success is from calling at the right time (luck) or just sticking around while everyone else quits or gets fired and you acquire their book of business. The company is ran by inexperience and very poor leadership ability (just because they have a "big" book of business doesn't mean they know how to lead others to be successful). Very easy to lose the job. Even when you do get a "customer" doesn't mean they will come back to you. Very aggressive market. Highly recommend choosing another company. This job and this company should be your Plan Z option. You will probably average around 65-70 hours a week, no time off and you will have to answer phone calls or emails on the weekends. Also, you lose your days off if you do not use them all before the beginning of the year.
