BlueGrace Logistics

I started at BlueGrace with the intention of helping a growing business with the knowledge I’ve gathered from big corporations netting billions of dollars a year; BlueGrace is set to be a billion dollar company within the next 2-3 years so I felt it would be great to help build something wonderful there.

However, I quickly learned that the level of nepotism at this place is RIDICULOUS!!! Management is a mix of friends and family members of the CEO, and industry experts that launched other 3PLs and employees of other, much bigger 3PLs. These people are ALWAYS at odds with each other (even within the friends and family circle) and nothing EVER gets done!

If you’re in tech, be prepared to do everything you were taught NOT to do. The heads of the department appear to have no real-world experience delivering good, working software. The industry experts that they have hired are mainly told to stay in line and do things the BlueGrace way and no one ever has a true voice.

This place is a giant bro-fest so if you’re recently out of college (or even high school), this may be the perfect place for you. The college quad/dorm vibe of this place is so prevalent that most people tend to bring headphones to drown out the constant Zumba-paced music blaring overhead all day and the noise from the sales reps at one end of the building constantly screaming and playing around. There appears to be no dress code so every day is a night out at the club. The young girls walk around as if looking for a rich CEO husband...

Run...just....run! It’s not conducive to long-term carrier goals.

Blue Grace has a lot to learn about employee turnover. I was hired for collections, trained for sales, and wound up in accounts receivables. There is no structured training for this position. It runs by trial and error and when an error is made, your job is on the line. I did learn a lot about the freight industry as my job duties went well beyond the realm of A/R. The management have no people managing skills. Your made as though to feel like you are a robot with no breaks in a mandatory 9 hour day except for lunch. When a holiday is a paid day, they only give 8 hours vacation pay. My department head was non existent in the last year of my employment so a lateral colleague was hired as supervisor. Their promoting process must not have anything to do with actually managing people as the person promoted let everything go to his/her head and made it a most unpleasant work environment. My coworkers changed every couple months because there is no formal training and the way people are treated and blamed for others mistakes drove most of them away after about a month or two. The hardest part of the job was trying to go to work positive only to be knocked down by any given member of leadership who may be having a bad day. The most enjoyable part of the job was the various themed days that we would take part in.

I worked for BlueGrace for over five years and was a person of many hats. I pretty much felt one-dimensional in this role, doing the same repetitive tasks daily and did not feel the fruits of my labor. I had tried to get promoted multiple times, and each time was given terrible feedback. One was "You are not analytical enough." However, I was analytical enough to learn how to read data, use it to calculate KPIs, and use it to help the customer make better purchasing decisions. This was one incident of many.

In regards to management, getting truthful and constructive feedback was like pulling teeth. I would be told that I am doing great and that I am on track to becoming a leader. Then I take the next appropriate steps to try and get promoted and get told "Sorry, we chose someone else." It was usually an external hire. I had been lied to by management multiple times and became fed up. 

The culture of the company is expressed greatly internally, but to me it felt like a show more than actually being genuine.

The most enjoyable part of the job was working with good people at the associate level. I made some life-long friends with tungsten strength bonds. 

In conclusion, I would not recommend working for BlueGrace, unless you want to use it as a stepping stone to get to the next level.


Working at Bluegrace, was definitely a learning experience. The building itself is very nice, everything seems organized but don't let that fool you. With MY  experience, my own "teammates" would CONSTANLY talk about others, whether it be their personal life or work. Even my manager would keep "secrets" from me. These people were judgmental, insensitive, and entitled. There's constant drama between different work groups, and even if you're new, somehow you are dragged into it. Even the Accounts Receivable manager was extremely unprofessional and would partake in talking about others. This place teaches about "core values" which nobody really seems to follow. And most have the mentality of "that's not my job, i only do what i'm paid to do." Which of course creates a lot of gaps and miscommunication. Instead of well deserved raises, they gave free lunches ONE DAY A WEEK, which honestly was probably the ONLY highlight of my time there. Of course there are SOME rare people who do make your time there better, but this place did worsen my depression. If you do care about how well you excel, and work hard to reach it, this place is not it. Also, they give .60 cent raises for the first 3 months, then another .60 a year. 

I have worked for BlueGrace for 5 years now, and cannot say enough great things about the company. My typical day is anything but mundane, and I am provided the autonomy to get my job done. 

It might sound cliche, but the culture is truly one of a kind. We have music playing throughout the office, culture events every few weeks, lunch provided about once per month, a "first date" dress code, access to leadership, and a team environment. Our growth is probably the most appealing of all. When I joined BG, there were 80 employees throughout the nation. Currently, our headcount is around the 550 mark and the growth that is projected to continue in the coming years is SIGNIFICANT! 

You'll find our core values posted on our website, and they're truly embodied day in and day out within the office. These values have helped shaped our culture and tie into everything that we do within these walls and within the community. This company is passionate - about our people, community, logistics. It's seriously exciting to be a part of.

For someone who had no previous knowledge of logistics, I will be forever grateful for BlueGrace. However, things aren’t always what they seem. I started in 2022 and was told if I met performance, I could be promoted within 6-9 months. Well, that turned into 2 years. I was finally given the promotion and raise I was promised after TWO years. They kept using the excuse, we aren’t meeting budget, the market is terrible, which is just a terrible excuse to not pay your workers.

Management is very toxic, and tend to stick to their cliques. If you are a part of the cliques, you are able to WFH all the time. If not, you are expected in office daily. Managers are very condescending with their tone and comments. Facility Manager specifically seems to always have an attitude about doing what his job description tells him too.

The music they play on the speaker is constantly distracting, and not only that the sales team blasts their own music with their own speakers. But when other departments want to do this CSuite tells them no. 

I was a top sales rep at BlueGrace. From the start, the training does not prepare you for the roll. It is sink or swim and many sink and are let go. Attrition is high, but they are aware of that and are doing things to try and fix it. However, with that comes a new sales plan every month. Dials are celebrated over sales made. The culture is very fratty. I had to go to HR for an incident and was told I was spreading rumors. Furthermore, 401k matching was cut with the explanation being it wasn't worth the investment. Every day you take off is brought into question and there is no flexibility to work from home. Any success is not celebrated. They constantly looked for what you are doing wrong and hop on that, but never acknowledge what you are doing right. The managers sit on their laptops watching netflix or gossiping or micro managing people who aren't even on their team. If you are someone who needs a lot of guidance in how to dial a phone and not looking how to learn how to make big sales, this is the place for you.

Toxic culture. Spaghetti code that management is very proud of. We actually had a meeting with the IT manager where he laid out, on a whiteboard, how all the systems were interconnected. At the end, it looked like he took the entire pack of markers and just scribbled all over the place. The company's flag ship program is written in .NET MVC, MVVM, and Angular in one application. There are many patterns and due to the age of the app, it's very complex. There is no walk through of the code. You just have to figure it out. There's no documentation at all. We had some agile ceremonies but they were largely overtook by the c-suite. The marketing leadership would often hover over the developers and implement that bro culture. The Florida location is very nice. The HR teams give you a lot of hopes and dreams in the hiring but will run from you after you've been onboarded. There's just a lot of egos. Nobody is a safe co-worker because everyone fears not being in the club which ultimately results in off-boarding. 

Work changes by the day. You never know what drama you're walking into. Management changes by the week. You never know who's actually in charge. People say that the people working in the IT department are children running with scissors. The project is great. There's so much code that you can't help but learn new and interesting methods to doing things. The team is not agile, although they will say they are. The devs are not empowered to make decisions without being second guessed or undermined. The benefits are amazing and the flex hours can't be beat. You just have to roll with the punches and always keep your resume up to date since they fire without warning even if you have good reviews.

I am very happy to work in an office environment with ambitious individuals and unlimited opportunities for growth. Many of the individuals in management began in the positions of the individuals that they are managing. I believe this has helped them to develop into knowledgeable and passionate leaders.
There is an open door policy where I am able to speak my mind or ask for guidance. I am constantly asked for input from Executives on projects as well as goals. I feel valued but also very humbled by the culture here at BlueGrace. Looking forward to advancing in my career as BlueGrace continues to grow.
