Grammer Logistics

Review of Grammer Logistics:

Grammer Logistics is a company with its fair share of strengths and weaknesses. While there are positive aspects to working there, such as the supportive co-workers, there are significant areas where improvement is needed. The main issues revolve around the management and their hiring practices, which have led to an overall negative experience.

One of the highlights of working at Grammer Logistics is the camaraderie among the co-workers. The team members are generally supportive, helpful, and create a positive work environment. This aspect plays a vital role in maintaining morale and fostering a sense of unity within the company.

However, the management of Grammer Logistics leaves much to be desired. There is a pressing need for an overhaul in their approach. Communication from management is often inadequate, leading to confusion and frustration among employees. Important information is often withheld or not properly conveyed, which hampers productivity and creates unnecessary stress.

Another area of concern is the company's hiring practices. It appears that Grammer Logistics continues to hire new employees even when there is a lack of work. This leads to a surplus of staff and insufficient tasks to assign them. It not only affects the productivity of the existing employees but also creates an unstable work environment where job security becomes a significant concern. This practice should be reevaluated to ensure a more efficient allocation of resources and a better balance.

Hired on based on recommendation from a friend, most everything I was told was a half truth and a whole lie. They have no respect for your time, they will call and give you a load for the following day late at night when you didn't have anything the day before so you made plans, then they act like your the bad guy. Then they over dispatch you, and when you ask questions about it, your again the one that's doing something wrong. I can't wait to drop this truck off at the yard and walk away pretending this is all a bad dream. You call for after hours support, its just a busy signal, you call your managers you often get no response. You call the dispatcher they just tell you that you have to wait. The pay and benefits are substandard, every process is outdated, you never know one day and one week to the next what your schedule is going to be so you can't plan anything. They want you to be open for whatever whenever with zero thought of you having a life and other responsibilities. Very disorganized company, changed my training terminal twice when I hired on, then said I was going to drive a truck back but they didn't know what state the truck was in, then when I got the travel itinerary it was 2 plane tickets, I shouldn't have to call and track down the itinerary for their orientation. After this experience I am going to leave the entirety of the transportation industry in my rear view mirror. 

Grammar is a place that you can fill at home here. The management staff for the most part is a great bunch of folks operations teams all the way up to the C suite. Genuinely care about your success in doing your job. A typical day in my shoes consist of helping drivers to be compliant helping them understand things they don’t know or help them learn new things. most enjoyable part of my job is dealing with drivers on a daily basis sharing knowledge with them and along the way them teaching me something. Also we do care for our drivers. We do want them to succeed and feel like this is their home job. We don’t want anyone to leave because I believe here at Grammar. It is one team and that’s from drivers all the way up through management it is a great place to work.

I have been looking for a company who's open to new ideas, trying new things, and not afraid to branch out into new areas.  I have found that at Grammer.  My days are long, but are rewarding.  My management team believes in me and what I bring to the company and are fully supportive of me.  The workplace culture is one where everyone is working hard together and we're a lean organization.  That makes it more rewarding to see the successful times.  The toughest part of my job is that I'm still learning this segment of trucking, but the team around me is super supportive and willing to help me learn.  Bottom line, if you're willing to roll up your sleaves, do your part, and help continually push the organization the right direction, this is the place for you.  

Scheduling is ridiculous. You're looking at your phone at 4 pm to see if you're working at 1 am or whatever time you're scheduled. Or you may be off. It's the not knowing until late in the day that limits your planning on working or having a day off. It's such an infringement on your work and personal life and the changing start times destroy any semblance of a normal sleep cycle. Management treats people well but the pay, PTO, no personal days or sick days off and benefits are not anywhere close to industry leading when hauling dangerous chemicals.
 

Enjoyed the job and looked forward to going to work every day. Co-workers are fun, talented, and underappreciated for the work they do. The company has taken away all employee perks. No bonuses, small rate increases, and most recent no company match for 401k. Not a good selling point to invite new potential employees. Upper management plays favorites. Keep employees who do less than average work performance, and terminate the hard working dependable employees. Positive reviews posted are driven by upper management after poor reviews have been posted. The previous CEO was far from an honest leader. The CFO has impossible demands. If you plan on job security, this isn’t the company!!!!!

What sets Grammer Logistics apart is the executive team’s unwavering demand for excellence. 
It isn’t just about the bottom line; there is a deep-seated understanding that high standards at the leadership level directly translate to a safer environment for our drivers and the communities we serve. 
By holding the executive team to a high bar, Grammer ensures that our dispatchers have the support they need and our drivers have the best-in-class safety protocols required for hauling specialized loads. 
It’s a challenging environment in the best way possible—because the stakes are high and the leadership actually cares about getting it right.

Grammer Logistics is a great place to work. Their professionalism, drive to help customers thrive, and safety culture make them a standout in the industry. Whether you're partnering with them or relying on their services, you can expect their attention to your needs every step of the way. Their employees are dedicated, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in providing great customer service.
