Pros

Upper management is often confused and fails to deliver a clear focused strategy. They dream up, then enforce new expectations almost daily. Then a few weeks pass and we are on to their next genius idea. It creates a chaotic work environment.

Cons

Besides the obvious short comings of upper management and ownership, the company just had a round of massive layoffs. Many employees are questioning R2's financial viability.

No "massive" layoffs have occurred at R2 Logistics. In fact, our employee headcount has increased every year since the company's inception. As far as company financials, we have never been healthier. All our key indicators have grown in 2015. In addition, the company owner also reinvested $1.9MM back into the company for growth initiatives.

Pros

This job has been my first since graduating college. It has been tough at times but I have had a great experience. It is an upbeat competitive atmosphere. The people I work with are all enjoyable and it makes the days go by so much smoother. The job itself is fast paced and you have to be ready to juggle several tasks at once but it makes for a fun environment.

Cons

The hours are long and you do have to handle some after hours phone calls at times.

Pros

The benefits of working here are boiled down to free snacks and coffee, with the exception of meeting a few coworkers I still keep in touch with.

Cons

Long hours, little pay. Literally have nightmares from working here. People would come in high and late and would be awarded employee of the month( LOL)...Don't even try to take holiday time off to spend with your family for Thanksgiving or Christmas. Upper management will ridicule you behind your back. I'm not talking Thanksgiving day or Christmas Day. I'm speaking on the behalf of people whom have families elsewhere and have to travel a day before/and day after. The "pod leaders" are so stressed and overworked they are Negative Nancy's and will cuss at you and treat you like garbage. Certain pod leaders and coworkers would sit there all day and message about other coworkers in the company ( not good things). If you enjoy staring at a computer screen all day and answering a phone non stop booking loads and making appointments, go for this job! The human mind can only concentrate on 3 tasks at a time, R2 expects you to be a super human and focus on 10 things at once. The HR department is amazing at what they do by passive aggressively replying back to every single one of these posts. Maybe just fix what goes on in the inside of the company versus hiding behind a computer screen all day trying to prove your points.
