ill try to shorten this, got hired in at $9hr , during the interview i told them i had a low blood sugar issue they said it was no problem we get 2 15 minute breaks and 1 lunch,i was walked to my trainer and he told me i was lied to there's only 2 breaks. when i was hired i was told every once in a while they work a 12 hr shift on friday or saturday, that was a lie they have been doing 12hrs on Fridays AND Saturdays for over 6 months, they fired a guy right in front of me while i was being hired because they said he talked to much, a diabetic lady passed out on the line so they sent her to sit in the break room for 10 minutes and then sent her back to the line instead of to the hospital, day 2 of my training my trainer tried to go home,and told me i would be there by myself when i never physically build anything on day 1, they wouldn't let him leave, later on he admitted he wasn't sick he just didn't want to work over which he did for a full 16hrs, the one girl quit because she worked 12 hours and they told her to go home for 4 hours and come back and do another 12. they cancelled all breaks alot of the time even on 12 hr days.the tomotor drivers we all drunk even with management knowing this i hate to use this term but the job is Slave labor and if the better business bureau or osha gets involved this company would be in a lot of trouble.....not recommended if u have any health issues or want to have any kind of family life..

The site managers that were acquired from GAP, Inc. are true professionals.
5 stars for them! You will not find a more cohesive or knowledgeable logistics team in this region.

Overall this is a great learning environment that is ripe with opportunities to gain experience.

I will be blunt: the pay rates are unrealistic in this market. The best available talent is not recruited and will not apply to work here.

Corporate uses its "Sleight of Hand" very often, and it demoralizes the local management team. 

Scheduling is changed to minimize overhead cost without considering impact to the customer's operations. 

High turnover and absenteeism is not understood by Corporate as an "outcome of the low pay offerings and low morale within the company".

Corporate team needs to nurture its deteriorating relationships with its' business units and clients.

The HR and Finance group needs to consider consulting with a reputable  Strategic Development firm. There is a huge void of understanding how to attract and retain resources. The constant turnover does not translate into a progressive-stabile organization. 

Projects are launched FAST and left unsupported due to needing resources to launch the NEXT project. 


I was giving myself 2 years here, which was cut down to 1, unfortunately, due to a new contract negotiation which I feel may have led to the layoff somehow. Currently, I am laid off from this job. It has been going on 2 months now.

I worked as a temp for 8 months before being hired in. I’ve only spent 1 year in total there. During that time, we’ve had 2 layoffs and I’ve had 4 different supervisors. 

I was a picker. For the pickers, you are constantly working. Downtime is possible depending on how fast you can pick your orders, but usually in the very beginning, you are not fast, which means you will only be taking your scheduled break which is one 30 min lunch break throughout the entire 10 hour shift while the rest of the building gets 5-6 breaks. 

The superintendent is constantly micromanaging and knit picking at things you do. Making it impossible to just come in, work and go home. He’ll have you do things that are out of your job description. Especially, if you are amongst the lower seniority.

I stayed at the bottom of the seniority list for so long because people just come and go at this job like it’s a Coney Island drive thru. Partly because they don’t wanna work and partly because of how the job is being ran.

Best advice… come in with a plan, stick to it and leave.

Overall CLI has severely misaligned views on how to become a 3PL domain expert. The “want” is there but, financial factors are never addressed properly to satisfy the “needs” to reach expert status. Many were excited after the acquisition but that quickly soured into terror and dismay. It is reflected in the benefits package, salary offerings, and general corp management approach to general “German OEM” customer expectations. The environment is very tense and combative. It is a very challenging environment wrought with risk due to unproven staffing strategies. The only requirement to get hired is that you show up. No consideration or special recruitment pursuits are given for skillsets or experience. That challenge is further compounded by an inflated & false perception of ingenuity, that is used as a “value-added proposition” KPI to its customers during performance reviews. 

It's hard to write cons because I genuinely enjoyed the people within the company before the acquisition. We were a family in a sense and treated each other well. This is a great opportunity for someone who is looking to get their feet wet in the logistics OEM business and move on to a more established-mature logistics employer.


Positives: 
Work is mostly easy, depending on your station. If you learn more stations and forklift driving, you have greater flexibility. 
They can be accommodating if you need time off or sick time, but hope you've worked enough to earn paid hours. Benefits are ok, you'll have to pay a bit for them however.
The people there are mostly decent, though we've had some bad hires in the past.

Negatives:
Pay is low, starting at $13.50 for assembly / forklift, worse than other manufacturers in the area. Meanwhile inflation and gas prices rising are taking chunks out of our paltry paycheck, and Management isn't doing anything about it?
Speaking of management, they continue to add processes that can slow down production, increase the quota, inventory management can be a mess, they'll have you work a 6th day if you don't meet the weekly quota, which happens due to reasons above. The cherry on top is constant turnover, no one wants to deal with the shoddy middle / upper management and poor pay, they're so out of touch. They seem to want to keep you poor.
Won't be surprised if this building gets shut down again.

Put it this way , the upper management has a challenge , who can come up with the best way to screw over their employees...Even with a union contract the company won’t abide by the agreement and look for ways to fire mass groups of people..25 people were fired for an unemployment mistake with the state involving a holiday during a lay-off , many people had proof they had no mistake and had letters from the state. This was done to fire the higher wage and insured people to bring in $8 an hour temporary help who was then let go on their 89th day.. I literally seen people cry on their 89th day as they were let go for literally doing exactly what the company said needed to be done to get “hired” in...Honestly the work done for a large auto supplier would have me never purchase a vehicle from the manufacturer (gm), but that’s me. All in all it’s a job you take only if you have to , but going above and beyond will get you let go and no where..that’s including low level management, who came to work during a shift downsize and forced to leave without the ability to say goodbye to the people they over see..

Comprehensive Logistics is a good company to work for if you don't have a job and need one quick. The work is very easy, not hard at all. Co Workers are all very friendly. I've made great relationships here. The only bad thing about it is if BMW is shut down, so are we except we don't get paid for it. You are either forced to use your vacation time or apply for unemployment which you wont get until you return back to work. I have had to use my vacation time in order to get paid for holidays because of a lack of proper communication between HR and the employees. It seems the only people who can really get overtime are the team leads and that's because they don't seem to want to train anyone else to load and unload the trucks even though, you get certified for forklift walking through the door. I've seen several people get hired to be forklift drivers and then get out on sequencing bc the team leads won't take the time to train anyone else how to do the job and I think its because if they do, they won't be getting the extra 20 hours overtime every week like they've been getting for close to 6 or more months. 

My typical day was forklifting. I was being chained as the shipping and receiving tech. Probably the hardest part about my job is when the front left part of comprehensive logistics gets overwhelmed with orders and new employees it gets crowded and you can't even turn your forklifts. The most enjoyable part of my day would have had to be training as a tech because I am an analytical person. They realized where I would flourish and they tried to put me there. unfortunately the change in upper management would eliminate my ability to continue training as a tech. Along with the forklift operators only getting like 10 minutes on a forklift to show their skills I believe this type of practice allowed for another forklift operator to break the water main that broke over my head and drench me in water

This is the worse Company I ever worked for. Management needs replacing. There was good management in the beginning, they actually cared about the employees. They didnt last long after they seen how this Company works. H.R. Dept is not an H.R. Dept. They avoid the employees instead of helping them. They dont know what they are doing and dont last long. Too much favoritism between Management and employees of "his" choosing! Same people hired over and over again who are not good employees, not reliable, taking too much time off, and they keep hiring them back. You keep doing the same things, you keep getting the same results!
But, people who are great workers, reliable, Management dont seem too care about them, doesnt make sense. Things going on there, I dont thing the main "CEO" knows about, or maybe doesnt care! I feel someone needs to do some investigating on what goes on inside instead of just making money. There is more to business than just making money, but for this Company, I guess not!


Each shift treated differently. If you were a male that was into sports you were good. If you were lazy, don't worry someone else would be made to do your work. If you didn't feel like doing a specific job that day, just throw a fit and you wouldn't have to do it. Union would protect you if you didn't work. You could sleep on the job. Always assigned people to do more work then getting paid for unless GM came. If GM came they had more then enough people to cover the jobs. Supervisors only yelled at the workers to work. If you need to use the restroom, you were stuck on the line waiting for your relief person sometimes for a half hour. Workers would take half hour breaks and not get in trouble. Vulgar music played on big speakers, earbuds always worn and cellphones always out. People died on the job and no attempt for help because the company decided to not re-certify management for First Aide so they wouldn't go near the person.
