Don't Walk....RUN FROM THIS PLACE

Pros

If you are a college recruit looking at Exel Logistics, think twice! This is not a place to use as a stepping stone out of college. If you are a dedicated, honest, and ethical individual this is not the place for you to work. Executive leadership does not care about their hourly associates, leaders, or operational staff. If you want to be a monkey on a string, then this is the perfect position for you. If you like working 70 hours a week, no weekends and little vacation, then this is the dream job for you.

Cons

You are constantly accused of wrong doing when you haven't done anything incorrect. It's shoot first then ask questions later. Their software is just a smoke screen they sell to customers. The systems do not have the functionality they sell to the customers. You will see alot of employee's complaining they work alot and are under staffed. Exel bids business so low and over promises what their truly capable of providing to the customer, it creates a ton of manual labor. Exel is not a leader in their industry. The do not have what it takes to grow a customer or an account. The executive leadersship is reactive and not proactive. They don't foresee a problem until it's blown up. It's frustrating for the clients. You constantly have to applogize to the client. Very dysfunctional company. Alot of "clicks" that cover up each other. If you are not in one of those "clicks" you will be transfered or better find another job.

Pros

* There are a lot of locations, so there is room for movement within the company, especially if you are willing to relocate. * Salaries and bonus are fair but not overly generous * It is hard to get fired from Exel * Some really good managers in the network but you have to reach out and get involved to make connections. * Health care options and benefits are good.

Cons

* History over over promising and under delivering, especially when it comes to upward movement. If you really want something get it in writing. * Many of the positions are occupied for the long term making upward meovement hard since there are few open positions that aren't spoken for a year in advance. * Management varies from site to site, with some sites staffed with excellent management and others with poor managers and supervisors. * There are many cliques

Pros

Great Pay, nice hours, easy dress code, paid holidays, exempt employees get time off for doctor visits, point system for hourly

Cons

Contract ends with customer and you are out of a job, if you make good money at one account and transfer you get paid whatever the budget allows, its a good old boy system you have to know someone to get a job.
