- Took five hours to get loaded (5 hours from appointment time, arrived earlier which is apparently pointless). They stated that they load as the product gets produced, which is an insane operating model in any way you view it. This load had been booked 3 days prior, so they know what loads they have coming up, but obviously do not care about any level of efficiency and have zero regard for the trucks they are loading.

I would steer clear of this company's loads altogether as they take forever to load AND to unload.

Cons
Dodging forklifts was a main priority. Besides shipping and receiving department madly trying to load and unload constantly revolving stream of trucks. Many machine operators were responsible for finding and pulling raw materials and putting away finished product. Many employees are new or just never been trainedShow Less
Advice to Management
Please stop with the meaningless "safety meeting" every shift. Also allow already trained and qualified employees to perform their functions and responsibilities.
Lastly examine the practices of more established and reputable companies that don't think Teamwork is Taboo and therefore not …
