Pros

Health benefits even for part time employees. Also paid vacations and a great retirement package. Keeps you energetic and in shape because you are always moving. Driving days go by fast because you are working against the clock at all times, not staring at it. Also you are in the union.

Cons

The main thing is you really have to be committed if you want to get full time. At my center, it takes right around ten years just to get full time! Every thing is by seniority due to the union, so sometimes the wrong people win the job that you surely are more qualified to do. So, a pro and a con-you're in the union.

need better information flow, ie from human resources to employees, sometimes i have felt led to believe that advancement is unattainable without 7 or 8 years of service.

Pros

Micromanagement was the key issue to my departure. However, the relationships built with existing clients and dealing with people on the shipping floor were highlights to my work day. I encourage others to try logistics as a job path, but is limited on the application of any education obtained from post-secondary endeavors.

Cons

Long work hours, micromanagement at all levels of work. Staff is composed of a varying degree of expertise and experience and many staff are temporary / seasonal employees which makes it difficult to build strong working relationships.
