Pros

Good pay for part time work. All your doing is loading and unloading freight on a forklift so not difficult.

Cons

No benefits for part time. Early morning hours. No chance to move up or even get full time. They play favorites alot so people that the supervisors like get more hours and better treatment.

Pros

Great place to work at, great team environment, fast paced, a lot of communication and time management. Very friendly co-workers and customers.

Cons

While it is great to work here at Dayton Freight in the warmer times of the month it can get very cold during the winter and you need to bundle up as the temperatures can be brutal!

Thank you for posting a review regarding your employment with Dayton Freight. I am happy to see you are enjoying your current part-time position. We have looked into dock bumpers; however, there is not a quality product on the market that can withstand our wear and tear. We are always keeping our eyes open for new products to enhance the work environment. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We will continue to look for solutions to cold weather!

Pros

The culture. From the top down you are treated with respect and are reminded how important you are to the company. They really show you in many ways how much they appreciate the employees. Equipment, facilities, and management are top notch. Here, you get out of it what you put into it.

Cons

None worth mentioning. There are so many great things about this company that the few negatives are just knit picking.
