Pros

Steady paycheck, benefits are good.

Cons

I cannot even begin to explain the cons within this organization. Constant lies to our customers regarding our IT road map and our overall capabilities. TMC is so far behind technology-wise, it makes me wonder what the sales team is saying to procure/retain customers. Get ready to be an email jockey for 8 hours a day. It was not uncommon for me to send 160+ emails a day while juggling the rest of my daily duties. The talent is an absolute joke. I came in with an orientation class of about 9 people, all extremely qualified with backgrounds in supply chain. After about a year and a half, I was one of two left. There was (I am sure still is) a mass talent exodus that HR seems to be replacing with people they can get at an extremely cheap hourly rate. I'm pretty sure the last two people I worked with did not have college degrees and keep in mind these people are managing a good portion of a company's supply chain. IMPACT model is a waste of time, we spent months on an IMPACT project to see minimal time savings in what we were trying to accomplish. Pay is a joke. When I accepted the job, I took a pay cut because I thought that this growing company had something going and could result in a huge raise later on down the line. The result? They degraded everyone's job title and bumped them to hourly employees. If you want a stepping stone in logistics, aim for the carriers like JB Hunt or Schneider, they are least pay you a respectable salary. Office environment is bad. Huge cubicle farm. They don't even allow you to wear headphones (and yes they actually enforce it). As trivial as that is, what company makes a rule like that? Just don't work here.

Pros

Not much that I can think of, would say its decent pay but they move the goal posts on goals every year so once you get comfortable with your goals and achieving your target to them hitting the reset button and back to square one

Cons

The culture has shifted in a very negative direction. Top performers can still feel boxed in by limited growth opportunities, changing expectations, and compensation structures that do not always reflect actual performance. There is a heavy focus on control, office attendance, and short-term metrics, while trust and morale continue to decline. It can feel political, exhausting, and disconnected from the people actually driving results. Very toxic for capacity reps, they do everything wrong and contstantly are the whipping posts for commercial teams who are always in the right
