Why Woodfield didn't work for me

I wasn't going to review them even though I knew I had made a mistake by the time I got through orientation, but since I've been looking for a good company, I realize reviews are soooo valuable.

Disclaimer: Some folks like Woodfield. My experience was awful.

Their trucks are turned down cascadias that can't climb out of their own smoke. Every driver assist and spy goodie freightliner offers. 3 minute idle shutdown even in gear. QCOMM Micromanages. You must put in a reason for going off duty to get it to accept. The hierarchy is a modern day plantation. Mr and Mrs are lovely and lofty. The office folks are the "house servants " who lord it over the shop workers and the drivers are lowly field hands. And God help you if you are a woman driver. Final straw, the shop foreman is a grumpy old buzzard who has the authority to fire any driver any time for any reason.
Awful.

 

What were some of the good parts?

 

Tell us how you really feel!

 

I thought you worked for them

 

Those were the good parts

 

Give clear examples of the problems you had.
I joined a company that has very strict rules and cameras everywhere.
But I knew and accepted that before putting in my application. My choice, my problem.
Tell all and let those applying to Woodfield decide if it's a good fit for them or not.

 

The recruiter was sweet. They allow pets. They rent a car for you to get to orientation. That's about it.

 

I think I pretty much laid out the problems. I don't really want to start ranting about the individual events that culminated in my actually hating the darn job in less than a week. Y'all be giving me grief and calling for the wah-mulance.

 

For 3 days. I know when to run.
