EXCELLENT company foundations - POOR execution at the branch level
Pros
The benefits are second to none. They pay 100% of your health insurance, which is a rare find. You get two weeks paid vacation, a 401K plan with a Fortune 500 company, and Expeditors does NOT do layoffs. You have job security here. Strong culture and and professionalism. I would recommend this company to someone WITHOUT a college degree.
Cons
They will pay people the LEAST amount of money that each individual is willing to accept. The company is based upon very strong moral character they pride themselves on doing what is right. HOWEVER, at the branch level, this could not be further from the truth. The level of politics, corruption, hypocrisy, and dishonesty is incredibly disheartening. Upper management is able to get away with this, because they have enough really good people who do good work, and keep their heads down and keep working. Some weeks they expect you to work 60+ hours, and some weeks they expect you to work not one minute over 40 hours. Whatever benefits them the most that week.
