If you don't mind the cold, it's a very good place to work. The day shift is ideal, unless your a night owl that loves making money. You get a $1.00 premium on nights. Its an ideal environment if you like to work and don't mind the cold. The company does provide cold-weather gear for you, although, I would recommend that you dress appropriately as well. If you don't have cold-weather gear in Wisconsin, you might not be too bright, that being said, make an investment. In this environment there are a lot of people working with heavy equipment in confined spaces. They will train you, however, it does take a while to understand the minutiae of the warehouse so be patient and understand that work comes first. More vacation time would be cool, at first, but it comes in time. Also, its a storage facility, so at times a customer might make requests that make warehousing seem more difficult that it needs to be. Understand that managing a warehouse won't be you job, until it is.

    Pre 1990 logistics. (Smokey and Bandit).(Many services not on same property.example: wash out, mechanics, laundry,driver trading,mail service,).(logistics ruined by weather construction and general public! Same old pre1990 stuff.
     Home time : Dispatch excellent efforts. (Pre 1990 log,dampens).  
      Scheduling maintenance: Co driver correlation only —-
Too many priority call out after loaded and pickup 3-4 Mnth. Per driver.
       Truck repair: (way too difficult to schedule . Big serious issue right there.)
       Recap running, rarely 34 taken.true grit driving. Very guru.

very nice place to work at... pretty good management but probably could have been a little bit more understanding with there employers on some issues having to do with the work that ultimately we the employers were doing and had the better knowledge of what was going on. the culture of the job was great and basically was what you made of it. if you wanted to come in and get your job done and go home and that's it, then that's was it. or the thing that i liked about it was it was some what of a competitive environment with co workers and even supervisors. A lot of the guys would try and see who could get the most work done or see who could do the best job and it was just all around a very smooth and fun workplace to be at.

Owners and senior leadership show their appreciation to their employees in may ways including catered lunches, company outings, and catered meals. I definitely don't feel like just a number here. Culture has a way to goes depending on which site you work at. Some sites are very open and fun and inviting while others are strictly professional and prefer to stick to their work. Leadership is very approachable and welcoming of feedback. Management is strict at enforcing policies and rarely makes exceptions, but they also show us that they care for our wellbeing and genuinely want us to enjoy our work. Overall a great company that truly cares for it's employees. 

Overall MRS isn't a bad place to work. If you ever have driven a forklift or worked in any warehouse environment, you'll do fine here. Starting pay has gotten better over the years and overtime hours are usually available if you desire it.  The only bad side is that depending on which location you work at management is either overbearing or non-existent. In terms of how they lead/manage their people or hold people to the standards of the company etc. Some workers get away with more because they know certain people outside of work. While others seem to get the short end of the stick more often than not. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
The workers are truly the best part of MRS just wish the owner was still in charge of the day to day and HR

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
A lot of OT and being double pointed for missing a day 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Good workers but it’s always one person who spoils the team environment and especially worst when it’s a supervisor 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Come in to negative but leave out with third shift thanking you

What is the best part of working at the company?
Company had some very nice employees.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
     A busy day could work you up to 12 hours without a break so Customer demands could be met.  May have been me because I were a new employee and if things were busy you worked non stop.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Very nice equipment and clean work space.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Shuttle trailers from Customer too warehouse.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Management doesn't pay attention to employees. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Management throws employees under the bus to cover for their incompetence. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Toxicity.  Employees complain about others not being productive while they are even less productive. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Listen to people complain.  Observe amateur management muddled thru an operation that's for beginners.

If you would like to work for people that do not care about their employees. Go ahead and apply. They don’t treat you like and equal when you start, they treat you like someone who has no idea which way up is. I have never had suck a negative place of employment. They act like they care about family emergency problems but they will blind side you and cut you off. If you want to apply but I would not even recommend this to anyone I know. Good luck. There are so much better places out there that will treat you with the respect you deserve.

MRS is a LTL refrigerated logistics company. My job is to make pick-ups and deliveries to and from the MRS warehouses, to and from MRS's customers and vendors. MRS is a well managed, and growing company with great people. The operation is the equivalent of an organized Benny Hill show (theme music included). There is limited room for advancement. If you are looking for a driving job or warehouse (dry, refrigerated, or freezer depending on location) job at a solid company, I would recommend MRS.
