Pros

Close to my home. 10 minute commute. Benefits were ok. The manager was ok. He tried to work with you on day off requests.

Cons

Way too much work for starting at 24 hr. Literally got in and out of the yard mule 50 times a night to roll down and up the landing gear. No need to on a yard mule since it raises the trailer way in the air but it was what the plant wanted. BS. They want their sign on bonus back because i stayed 4 months but I don't remember signing anything saying I would stay a certain amount of time. So they said they are going to sue me. Good luck if you go there.

Pros

Great hours, I have an awesome OS and OM. I was salary exempt so if I worked over 40 hours I was paid hourly after that. I was also paid weekly which was extremely nice.

Cons

No relocation assistance for in-state promotions.

Pros

You get to work on real supply chain problems that actually matter to operations, not just theoretical stuff. Remote flexibility is solid and the work-life balance is fair. The tech stack is modern (Snowflake, Azure, Power BI) and if you're someone who takes initiative, you'll get the chance to own things end-to-end. The people you work with day-to-day are genuinely good and most teams have a collaborative culture.

Cons

Growth from senior level and beyond can be painfully slow even when you're clearly doing the work above your role. Leadership and org changes happen often which resets your visibility and momentum with whoever is advocating for you. Some areas still lack clear ownership so things fall through the cracks or land on whoever is willing to pick them up. Pay doesn't always reflect the scope of what you're actually doing.
