Pros

Great experience to have under your belt! Many opportunites to expand trucking knowledge They stage you several area routes every year. Some times on liftgate, most in 53 foot dry vans. Trucks are new and mostly automatic. Still have a couple stick. Decent pay and they keep up with competitors pay.

Cons

Safety was a concern for me when it came to the freight. For most part they practiced great safety at company dock etc. But when it came to the freight we picked up at places that contained crystalline silica etc they didnt care for you breathing it in (causes cancer) they only cared about you bringing it in. You make a deal out of it and they look at you crazy. All this time you were under the impression safety was everything and we were like family (their words). Mill runs were awful too. Asbestos is almost every corner and they did not care for any complaints at xpo. When work is hectic, even tho you have busted your buttocks over road and unloading freight, they might make you stay longer to help dock workers unload trailers after you have completed your shift

Pros

With 3PL business you get a startup type of work environment

Cons

Inspite of having excellent performance reviews and my manager agreeing that I should be getting promotions, it never came! Somehow I found out that he never intended to give me a promotion. Ruined 3.5yrs of my life!

Pros

A tv on the wall in multiple locations

Cons

The Operations Analyst role on the Intermodal team has a higher turnover rate than a third grade basketball game. The manager does not believe in work/life balance. Just strictly work. Be prepared to put in 10+ work hours without a lunch break. Unless you want to eat at your desk while working everyday. The training consists of the new hire having to ask 3 other employees on what to do every single day. No training documents, your peers will give you all different advice and so will the manager. Each person will say not to do it that way, but there way. No analysis training. I had the Senior Analyst do the analysis but our manager and other terminal managers said it was incorrect. All advice I followed from teammates that came back incorrect was blamed on myself for not knowing what I was doing. The company surveys are not a way to provide your feedback because if you do and it’s not all in favor of the team/company, they will look to replace/fire you. The manager will spend his day stuffing his face with food, rather than training employees. Work is 100% in-office while other departments might not be. Salary is low and they do not give everyone bonuses or salary increases. My experience is HR is liars, manager is a liar and tries manipulating people to do/say things, the team misguides you.
