Pros

I did enjoy my time at R2 logistics. There were very stressful times but when you and your team got through, it was satisfying. The working environment was pleasant. Constantly being pushed by your branch manager and pod leader but they are pushing you to your potential. Oh, of course the commission too. Advancement comes along frequently because people couldn't handle it so it will give you opportunity. The fridge is stocked mostly all the time and there are plenty of snacks. I did create good relationships with co-workers and customers.

Cons

The Hours. Way to long. My branch did cut it down to 9 hours a day compared to the 10 before and it made a bit of a difference. The training is a bit weak. The more you call out and answer phone calls the better you will get at it. Sometimes it was difficult to talk to management. The pay does suck a bit, but you have to work hard for it and put in the time. Only pod leaders and branch managers get commission. Pretty unfair when the associates are doing 99% of the work. This will be the most honest review you will read about R2

All of our associates, from our admin staff to operations, are given the opportunity to earn commission from new customer sales. Commission for Pod Leaders and Branch Managers is an added incentive to award those who work hard and put in the extra hours needed to propel the company forward.

Pros

Friendly group of co-workers, casual attire and atmosphere.

Cons

Long hours without much incentive to "go the extra mile", constantly watched over, less than motivating 'inspirational' e-mails from upper management.

As a direct result of our annual customer survey, we are currently in the process of formulating an after-hours shift to mitigate long hours.

Pros

Easy, fairly mindless work. Not too straining. Fairly relaxed work environment, however there are occasional moments of stressful work.

Cons

Hours. Working from 6-4 with a 45 minute lunch, somedays staying until 5 to get work done. At a poiont you will also have to take the phones home with you at least one night a week and be asked to work weekends. Isn't worth it for the pay.

All employees at R2 Logistics are given an hour lunch break. All employees are also given a base salary with multiple incentives and bonus pay based on new customer sales. As a direct result of our annual customer survey, we are also currently in the process of formulating an after-hours shift to mitigate long hours.
