Pros

Can make money only if you sell freight

Cons

Outside sales- I was hired 2 months after my manager, only to find that out once in training a month later, this has reflected in my one on one training, I do not have any peers to relate to and throw around ideas, regardless this is sales, focus only on selling freight there is no margin in UPS and your commissions will reflect this and it is a much longer close in the sales cycle

Pros

- Can stack some good foundational capital right out of college - Training was okay, but could use a lot of improvement - Fridays were pretty nice looking back on it

Cons

- Sales scripts don’t sell in this day in age - Buyers are informed and intelligent, add value on the operational side since the pricing isn’t anything special - Unishippers is backed by private equity, that means you will be cold calling all day - These people do not care about you, you are just a number on a spreadsheet - 7% commission is fixed, go to a company that offers tiered commission so you actually get more for the money you make for the company - Management will not give you space to breathe, expect to be micromanaged regardless of performance - You will have to spend extra time after work servicing accounts - You are expected to do things outside of your moral compass, research the lawsuits and that will pretty much tell you everything (Goes back to being backed by private equity) - No company match - Will get sold a dream, not the actual reality - Very high turnover, churn and burn environment
