Operations team respect Supply Chain Engineers and this is a good company to learn from fellow engineers and co workers

Pros

The starting wage is decent. There is an emphasis on customer service. The company has an excellent tuition reimbursement program.

Cons

The company pays half-time rather than time and a half for overtime, which is mandatory at times. Human resources is very lax about replying to people and often their replies are not truthful. There seems to be discrimination towards people who require FMLA. Raises are extremely minimal and amount to mere cents, even if you get the maximum raise. There seem to be no genuine opportunities for professional growth.

Pros

Plenty of room for advancement if you put your mind to it, though most advancement requires you to move beyond your initial location as managers have favorites.

Cons

Lack of quality managers and supervisors. Favoritism does come into play though it became less prevalent as the years went on. Lack of emphasis on employee retention. Outside supervisors were brought in rather than promoted from within. Over four years, 7 supervisors came and went with 5 of those being on one shift. No incentive to do more than the bare minimum. Quality of job is dependent on which client Ryder is contracted to at a facility.
