Pros

Great money. When you finally get your own route the job becomes a lot easier and somewhat enjoyable. Try to not start as a relief driver or just ask your supervisor not to cause it’s a different route every time and that’s how guys quit. Having a consistent route, you’ll get to know your customers, know how to maneuver around parking lots. You’ll also make a lot more money cause you eventually get stops done quicker.

Cons

Trailer is delayed 1-2 sometimes 3 hours late. Full trailer loaded terribly so you’ll be digging and rearranging pallets until you have space to work. Hell you might have to put merchandise for a stop that’s 6-7 ahead of your first or second stop OUTSIDE of the trailer cause you have nowhere else to set them just so you can get your 2-wheeler and YOURSELF in there to work.

Pros

None anymore. Unless you like being treated like garbage

Cons

Lowest pay of any other company in this field. They offer sign on bonus but you can make more just getting paid normal any where else. Treat their workers like used toilet paper. Only advice run away the fire not into it.

Pros

When I first started, the location I worked in was a team environment. We worked together and helped each other move mountains to attain goals. At that time, the company put employees first. Compensation was outstanding and benefits were to be expected - competitive.

Cons

The reorganization has driven morale in the wrong direction. US based operations were stripped of leadership and combined into markets with unattainable goals. Management level employees at the sites were expected to pick up the left over pieces as leadership was wiped out. Standardization drives unrealistic metrics and employees no longer seemed to be of value. They were just another cog in the giant corporate wheel. While change did need to happen, the pace at which it was required was and still is unrealistic. Many of the best leaders in the field have sense left and the few who remain are exhausted and burnt out, being told to do more and more with less and less.
