Pros

Cool atmosphere that includes music all day and an open work space. Good people that are willing to help if you ask.

Cons

No clue what they're doing in the sales department. No training whatsoever. No experience on the sales side to help. Cold calling all day. Prices usually too high to compete.

Pros

There are lots of opportunities to learn and mature as a salesperson. The training program is great and really prepares you for the floor. For the first couple of weeks you shadow all the different roles in the company. Getting to sit with customer sales and operations prepares you for working as a carrier rep. Everyone is actually friendly and encouraging. Coworkers are enthusiastic about helping you learn and make you better are your job. The potential to make a lot of money in a short amount of time is real. After only being with the company (and industry) for 7 months, I am already on commission. Managers and higher ups are awesome and extremely approachable. The company events and pizza lunches are just a bonus because it really is a great place to work.

Cons

The only problem for me is the commute. Living in the burbs and sitting in rush hour traffic after a long day is not fun.

Pros

Salary. Even though they start people in at whatever they want within reason.. The counter and negotiate pay. They under pay the people that busy their cheeks and over pay the people that do nothing. But all in all.. The pay is the only thing I would say is a "pro" however, this is transportation.. Other companies will pay around what they do as well.. Just have to find them.

Cons

Where should I even start? I was lied to from the beginning. I was told that the environment and culture was a fantastic family feel.. Well that's only true if you a zoo animal. Its a total "boys club" The management and associates are TOTALLY absurd. The business ethics of this company and the "people" the hire will be the reason the company doesn't stay in business for long. Half these reviews on here were PAID for.. Literally laid the employees to write them. Favoritism is HUGE here, as well as sexisim. The age range is anywhere from 18-30 and the environment is nothing short of cuss words, overly loud music and NO sense of professionalism what so ever. The managers do whatever they want, talk to people however they want, and leave work for hours during the day for "personal" matters. Point blank is they are fairly new with opening their branches and already the have empty offices. The only people who stay are those without a sense of morals, values and responsibilities. The good quit and the crap stays. They treat carriers, drivers and customers like crap. Literally the worst company and group of people for that matter, that I have EVER been around.

Thank you for your review. While we are disappointed that you did not enjoy your experience at Redwood, we wish we would’ve had the chance to discuss while you were here. We value our relationships with employees, customers and carriers, many of which we are proud to say have worked with us for all of the 14 years we’ve been in business. While change is a part of Redwood’s growth and expansion, we have always encouraged our employees to provide their honest feedback through the Open Door Policy. Much of our continued success has been driven by innovation and ideas from employees at all levels and at all of our locations.
