Pros

There were a lot of great people devoted to this company, myself included

Cons

Very bureaucratic. Long history using people up and then discarding them without any regard for their contributions. The dysfunctional behavior seems to be the only thing thriving in this company.

Pros

Excellent health and dental insurance. Full time top out pay around $20.00 per hour. Was once a great place to work. Flexible hours for part time workers. Union rules let you get away with murder, so to speak.

Cons

Union workers will make your life miserable, if you don't fit in. Management is never happy, they always want more. The company is highly mismanaged; I honestly don't know how they are still in business. Part time dock workers start out at only $11.00. This is much less than non union companies.

Pros

Zero cost benefits, plenty of people happy to help new hires, variety of driving positions, new equipment trickling in, job security ( not able to fire people unjustifiably). Not a private vs.drill sergeant place like one big competitor I worked for.

Cons

Home/Work life balance is definitely work priority. If you don't like the established way, best to get over it. Transfer to new city( if it is advantageous) can happen if terminals become unprofitable.
