Pros

Bonding with coworkers while everyone works a boring job that doesn't pay well at all.

Cons

$12 an hour after taxes, 45+ hours a week, no overtime pay, work at least 1 non-paid Saturday a month. With the "opportunity to make extra income", the workload piled on GREATLY exceeds a minuscule pay increase that only comes if you hit certain margins. The name of the game is to make the company a ton of money while pod leaders get little treats for giving up all their time and ops personnel gets a ridiculous salary. All of your emails and messages are read by paranoid management. All of the positive reviews made on this site are by management. If you try to put in your 2 weeks notice, you will be asked to leave immediately and threatened with the non-compete you are forced to sign upon being hired. This company has the worst business ethics I have experienced so far and management has zero morals. All the employees express dissatisfaction with the job but are too afraid to get fired to speak up.

This is a surprising review for an office that is known to be one of the most upbeat and competitive workplaces at R2 Logistics.

Pros

I did enjoy my time at R2 logistics. There were very stressful times but when you and your team got through, it was satisfying. The working environment was pleasant. Constantly being pushed by your branch manager and pod leader but they are pushing you to your potential. Oh, of course the commission too. Advancement comes along frequently because people couldn't handle it so it will give you opportunity. The fridge is stocked mostly all the time and there are plenty of snacks. I did create good relationships with co-workers and customers.

Cons

The Hours. Way to long. My branch did cut it down to 9 hours a day compared to the 10 before and it made a bit of a difference. The training is a bit weak. The more you call out and answer phone calls the better you will get at it. Sometimes it was difficult to talk to management. The pay does suck a bit, but you have to work hard for it and put in the time. Only pod leaders and branch managers get commission. Pretty unfair when the associates are doing 99% of the work. This will be the most honest review you will read about R2

All of our associates, from our admin staff to operations, are given the opportunity to earn commission from new customer sales. Commission for Pod Leaders and Branch Managers is an added incentive to award those who work hard and put in the extra hours needed to propel the company forward.
