Pros

During my time at Spot, I watched the company grow from 10 employees to over 45 by time I had left. Spot offers new employees a chance to get in on the ground floor of a logistics company and make a real impact from the start. Things are done the right way and everyone is there to help, from senior employees to the presidents of the company themselves. If you are dedicated and willing to put in the work, the sky is the limit here. Employees are not treated as a number and the environment is a friendly and helpful one. Everyone genuinely wants to be successful and it is apparent in the atmosphere and work culture.

Cons

Work hours can get long depending on your customer base. This job is not for everyone, being outgoing and having a good attitude/willingness to learn will have a major impact on your success.

Pros

Pays well Thankful to have had the opportunity to work with many hardworking, concientous people, most of whom have since left the company.

Cons

No clear leadership Workplace atmosphere is that of college frat house Sitting for 12 hr operations shifts is too long Always dealing with issues in crisis mode instead of being proactive. Management & Human Resources promotes a company culture where many employees from top down are more concerned with exchanging silly, time wasting non work related emails and after work drinking plans than addressing current work. The company bleeds employees/revolving door.

Pros

Great location downtown with younger employees who work hard and cohesively as a team. Everyone is competitive with each other in getting new customers and being the best at the job. Both of the owners do a great job of keeping their employees happy and the mood relatively light. The renovated and modern office is definitely nice and makes you feel proud to call Spot Freight your place of work. As a freight analyst you will have unlimited earning potential and like all things requires legit hard work.

Cons

It can get a little hectic in the office and there is a lot of stress in the job. At times you will feel overwhelmed and starting to doubt whether you will survive, but the day/s will go on and everything will work itself out.
