Decent salary, benifits and vacation. Friendly co-workers. Some training provided.

Hard to advance as a woman. Very male donminated company.As a woman you are not lisented to . Dont speak your mind , you waste your breath. no work life balance. Managers are worked to death as upper management sits in their office . No support from upper management. They speak of diversity, and culture . But its all talk. They dont live by their words...

Pros

None. Get out while you can.

Cons

Houston location has the worst leaders. They're cheap with raises and cut the good people so the management team can get better bonuses. They make up rules that make no sense when they feel like. There are guys in the yard who have no job titles but somehow are still working there doing nothing all day? The safety leads/radio room/management are a joke. They cover up for the people they're buddies with. Ran into the gate? Destroy thousands of dollars of goods or a trailer? Ran out of gas in the middle of the road driving the mule offsite? Not a problem if you're buddies with management and safety. If you're buddies with management, you get opportunities offered to you even though you may be among the worst and slowest spotters. If you're not buddies with management/safety/radio, you have to watch your back. HEB corporate needs to look into management here.
