ABF Freight reviews

Very poor leadership is running it into the ground fast, ABF Management has become MIRCO MANAGING (expecially terminal managers) A company once known for bringing the best leaders to run the company at all levels has faded away, and the creatation of non essential jobs titled ""specialist" is alarming, at a time when the company is laying off due to the economy, they have non productive style positions. while at the terminal level we are expected to work with fewer drivers etc. I will say one of the most alarming is the Terminal Manager positions are being filled by" green no experience" people that fit in the same mold, it's like a cookie cutter position, they are all the same. As long as they have a degree, it doesn't matter what the degree is in, just need that piece of paper. The company struggles to make money due to poor leadership, not JUST the economy, The new managers are living on the computer, hiding in thier office, playing with numbers, get up and see the customers, the workers, where the prifit is.

Virtually zero feedback, no standards and serious waste in regards to overtime and schedules. Zero on the job training, if you come to this company without operational experience it will be frustrating. No vacation the first year, but you are allowed to use one of your weeks from your second year after 6 months.
