PLS Logistics Services reviews

You're a number and all they care about is money. Your good performance one day doesn't matter the next day. A bunch of heavy pockets funding a private company and expanding at an ungodly rate with the goal of going public, selling it off in a few years and walking away with even heavier pockets. It's a sweatshop for new starry-eyed college graduates. There is a new training class almost every two weeks. The turnover/attrition rate is mind-boggling. You spend much of your day watching interviews where 9 out of 10 candidates get a tour of the facility (they're offered a position). This is where they rope you in, showing you their basketball hoop, Wii and locker room/shower facility. They lie and tell you that these things are actually used. What you actually do is spend 9-10 hours a day cold calling leads that you generate (not them) and staring at a computer screen. The Group Sales Managers are the only managers that actually have knowledge of the industry. They're under just as much stress, fighting for their team to produce numbers to meet the big pockets' desires. They want classes to sign up as many customers as possible so that they will eventually get pawned off to the few that drag through enough months. It's all about gaining as much market share as possible to prepare for that big IPO some day. There will be few that see the big dollars when that happens.

However, they are fake. They are planning on hiring 100 more people, but they are weeding people out. My training class was the first and there were 8 of us, within two and a half months 3 of us were laid off and 1 was demoted.They are planning on hiring 10 more training classes, and no one's job is safe. The manager has no idea about the transportation industry, and they will make you believe you have a good job and then lay you off without hardly any notice. Plus, even if you make it they keep demoting their current account executives and giving away all of their customers to their top earners. Do not work here! And if you do, do not trust the management!
