Proceed with caution

Pros

The actual reset work can be straightforward, especially if you already know the project.

Cons

Very poor communication and inconsistent handling of employees. I was hired under a signed offer letter at $25/hr with no travel requirement. Later, management disputed the rate but failed to handle it properly and even continued paying the higher rate due to their own lack of coordination. I was eventually removed from the only local team and reassigned to a travel-based role that wasn’t workable for me, despite being told by HR that I left in good standing. This year, I applied again for the same local project at the same $25/hr rate. I received an email saying I was a “perfect fit” and they were eager to talk, but once I replied, the recruiter never responded. This reinforced the ongoing lack of follow-through and internal communication. Proceed with caution if you value transparency and consistency

Opportunity for growth but lacks resources

Pros

Opportunities for growth, somewhat competitive pay, and high visibility

Cons

Not enough resources to complete all of the work across all functions. Management expect employees to be on past work hours and there is little work/ life balance.

Good place to work

Pros

Most warehouses work you to death and treat you poorly. L & R is not that kind of place. The company respects their employees and have fair expectations for work productivity. They have always worked with my school schedule as well.

Cons

Management puts together plans that do not always go through.

Pros

None at all! Can't think of one pro.

Cons

Low, insulting pay. Unrealistic expectations. Horrible Management. Unbelievable turnovers. HR Dept. are unfriendly, stuck up people who don't even speak when they pass you. They also believe gossip that they hear. Not one black person has an office...ONLY white people! Worse company I've ever come across. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME INTERVIEWING...UNLESS YOU WANT TO BE TREATED LIKE A SLAVE!

The most important thing to address is your concern regarding potential discrimination. As can be observed from the photographs of Company Events posted to our page, we have a very diverse group of individuals working at our Corporate Office. We want everyone to feel welcome, included, and part of the team. Our published policies are very clear about providing a safe and inclusive work environment for all employees. Anything that is not in line with providing a welcoming environment should be brought to the attention of a Manager, the HR Team, or, if you aren't comfortable approaching these individuals, L&R Distributors has an External Human Resources Consultant who visits the office regularly, and he is available to all employees to discuss concerns confidentially. Regarding the distribution of Office Space at our Industry City Offices. The decision was to keep offices for only members of the Executive Team, the Human Resources Team, and/or Managers who have a specific role that requires confidential discussions or regular meetings with clients, vendors, or customers. All members of Staff have access to Hotel Offices (empty offices that are reserved for meetings) or our Conference Room or Huddle Room. These offices are available to all staff. Compensation is always a topic of discussion as the Leadership Team wants to provide the best package that we can afford. As a National Wholesale Distributor employing individuals across the United States, there are many factors to consider. We have made many attempts over the past few years to provide the best package possible including: Consolidating our Benefits Offerings across the Organization to lower Premiums and offer better quality insurance options; Reviewed our Salary Bands against Job Descriptions and DOL Data by Region; Develop a Career Path which has resulted more leadership roles for high-performing staff. At the Corporate Office we have also held several raffles to win tickets to sporting events or attend other outings. Additionally, we've held Bowling Nights and other events for Office Staff. We've noted that you are a Former Employee, but we still invite you to contact the Human Resources Team to discuss any specific concerns that you've had as we are always working toward offering the most inclusive environment and competitive employer brand possible.
