Pros

Very easy to become indispensable to the corporation by specializing in any one of many proprietary systems. This entails long hours and travel but can be rewarding.

Cons

The warehousing industry is of such a thin margin that maintaining even standard industry practices stretches budgets thin leaving little to reinvest in human potential. Thin margins also mean thin margins for error and with that no way to pick up the slack when things do fall behind. This is not a company with money to venture with.

Pros

Potential for higher pay, free boots and uniforms, higher level of respect compared to other local drivers, minimum $1500 a week. The Wilkes Barre location treated me very well.

Cons

Long hours, might run out of hours if you’re inexperienced
