Thank you for sharing. Our working environment is very unique and can be quite challenging. The position, like you mentioned, is incredibly dynamic, and that is where the fun lies. Every day presets new and exciting tasks. This is one management job that requires a great deal of knowledge, confidence, and ability to plan and execute. We are sorry to hear that you felt as though there was favoritism in scheduling. Our schedules are written in advance. and are made to meet the needs of the business. This means that managers that are more experienced my be asked to tackle a specific task, or an inexperienced manager may be asked to work a certain shift to gain experience where needed. To clarify your comments on HR, we have an open door policy. We make our HR staff readily available to our staff, and we even have a HR representative dedicated to the retail location. We work hard to include all employees, to speak with them, nurture them, be part of their growth, and to share our culture with them.

Not a climate controlled facility, peak hours are lots of overtime which is objectively a really good thing

Thank you for the nice comments! Here at Cargo Largo, we pride ourselves on culture. We are glad that you feel like family, because in our eyes, you are part of ours! We are continuously working to improve our working environment, so we appreciate the feedback. We try to adhere to our 1st shift Monday-Friday hours as much as possible, but due to contractual obligations. overtime is a part of our business, especially during peak season! The high volume is partially from the year after year growth in our business and relationships with major clients, so we view at that growth as a success. We have installed many large, high volume fans to help with the summer conditions, but due to the nature of the facility and business, the weather will always play a factor. One benefit we offer to counteract the weather is a very casual dress code!

Some perks, if it's what you need

Pros

The Distro center is located very close to the highway. Once a month, they buy you lunch or breakfast for the all-company meeting. You get a 15% discount both at the Distro and Retail. Items that would otherwise go to Bid Sale are insanely cheap for employee purchase; so if you need things like baby clothes or paper towels, you'll be able to get them cheaper at your job than out shopping.

Cons

You have to "drink the Kool-Aid" to move up, here. Even if you're a good employee, they choose certain personalities to advance. Some people who should have been fired manage to stay and be successful, and some people who should still work here have been fired. It's stressful to never know if it's going to be you, next. It's very much a revolving door. The training also is very poor.
