operations manager

Lynden

When I start a new job I always see what the average retention rate is and AML/Lynden keeps their employees and most are happy and satisfied. The pay is fair the work is hard and challenging. Management is fair and straight forward ( In my case anyway ). I found my perfect fit here, and am proud to be a Lynden/AML employee.

Have worked for this company for over 10 years of my 27 years in this industry and it's a great place to work.  The work-life balance is respected and the goal is customer satisfaction, not just dollars and cents.  There are few companies in this industry that have the longevity and strength in unique markets which allows for consistent business even in the midst of market forces that cause other companies to struggle.  The average time in service to this company is extremely long which speaks to the environment and opportunity to be had.

They pay decent wages, the company is small and has (as of lately) few employees.

 On the other side, raises are hard to come by, it's a popularity contest to achieve anything, coworkers are backstabbers and lie.

 I worked there for 4.5 years and without warning was laid off. Upon giving me the news, was told that management would set me up with others needing employees that they knew, and haven't heard a single word from them since I left. Overall, bad experience. 

Worked there for a while, very brotherly environment and we all pull together as a team. The yard is huge and there's always something to do. Hard work will put you ahead. Never be slacking off though. If you work like a madman, you will move up faster than you are told you will.

The stability is awesome.  If you come to work on time and do your job, you will be happy.  They care about safety.  Getting better at keeping up on technology to make your job easier. 

I have been with Lynden is Skagway for over two years and love it there. It’s like a family working here. There is only 5 employees including me and it makes for a great place to work! 

Workers are appreciated at this company.  Plenty of opportunity for advancement for motivated employees.  Very stable with a long history of serving customers in Alaska.  Quality place to work.  

The people I worked with were mixed good and bad. Their computer systems were so slow and terrible that it was miserable working there. Long hours, lots of stress. Upper management seems convinced it's still in the 90's.

You’ll learn alot here. Good pay, good benefits, better than most places with similar operations. If you apply yourself , it’s easy to make more money here. If you don’t apply yourself, you’ll be fine too. Lynden is life, bro. 

Learned a lot but just too demanding in the summer.  All their jobs are in the bush if that’s what you’re looking for. Management cares and will help but organization seems dysfunctional at times
