Roman Empire Logistics

You start your day with a brief meeting, you load up and get to work. It's physically heavy work but you already knew that going in. The pay is nothing special.
This job is good if you're old and desperate enough to not look for work anywhere else. Or if you're young enough to think the pay is decent for the work required. You will get easier routes based on nepotism.
Managers are very obviously inexperienced and are making it up as they go along. If you need a schedule change it is practically impossible, there is zero flexibility. Positions were first come, first served when it came to management. You may be told that there's plenty of opportunity for growth, there isn't unless one of the current managers hates their own job enough.
And the boss openly lies and expects adoration even for the smallest of benefits. (French fries, anyone?). His personality as a boss came out of "how to manage a business for dummies" book. He will openly threaten your jobs as a group and teach you to stay away from management that tends to throw the word "family" around. You are not family unless it can be used as an excuse to exploit you. People who excel are rewarded by getting to do the work of people who do the bare minimum to coast by. 
Overall it's not the end of the world to work here, but it's absolutely a dead end. If you wind up here, do your work, keep your head down and look for another job. There are similar jobs, and similar salaries, where there might be room for growth, try one of those.

The work here is physically demanding and, frankly, the compensation does not match the effort required. Management communication is poor, they mainly use Slack, and HR often speaks down to employees about payroll and clock-ins, frequently using an aggressive tone (including ALL CAPS messages).

They market the company as “family,” but after a few months, it becomes clear that favoritism and cliques are a bigger part of the culture. Some managers treat employees like children rather than professionals, creating an environment of micromanagement and distrust. For example, managers sometimes follow you in their own vehicles to ensure you’re “not slacking,” even when you’re simply waiting for supervisor instructions, as I personally experienced.

With over 15 years of management experience myself, it’s clear to me that many in leadership positions here would not meet professional standards elsewhere. Accountability is selective, morale is low, and respect is lacking.

If you’re considering a position here, know what you’re signing up for.


The owner and managers really made the company seem like we were all a big family but the company was drenched in favoritism, unfair treatment, and lies. Many drivers were very honest hard working people but due to the poor management and leadership styles of the supervisors and leads, many people quit or were fired due to absurd reasoning. As far as delivering packages in queens, I was able to explore and work in neighborhoods I haven’t been before. I was able to be in my van alone and work on my time as long as the job was done. I’ve met good people and it was a pleasure being an essential worker in Astoria, woodside, bedstuy, greenpoint, Long Island city.. and the list goes on. If you can handle the drama, the managers, and the work load then this is the job for you. 

As long as you do what you need to do this job is amazing, especially if you like a daily workout. However if your lazy run this job isn’t for you. The management is actually better than all the other jobs I ever had. Rescues are mandatory which sucks because there are drivers that milk the time on purpose so they can get rescued. However at the same time it’s a good thing because when you’re having a bad day then guess what you will get rescued. Unfortunately Amazon makes the routes and not all routes are created equal you can have a bless day of 200 packages all houses or a day of 200 packages all projects. 

Typical day as a lead driver is amazing because you get to interact with your drivers.
Management wise once you state what the rules are to everyone and they know what they are your job becomes a lot easier.
The workplace culture you'll love the Vinny is a amazing guy and the way he treats his staff was one if the best places I've worked.
Hardest part is dealing with bad drivers and small streets lol.
Most enjoyable part was delivering customers their packages stops ahead of their schedule and driving.

No opportunity to make any money unless you like getting paid 400 a week the most you could make there (if they let you) is about 700. They just favor certain people in the job and you can’t get the schedule you desire you get what they give you. You have to help people once you’re finished your route to still not get your 40 hours.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Great culture, awesome work environment, supportive leadership. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Physically demanding workload.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Respectful, laid back, and straight forward.  Reasonable expectations.

This is a family business that really goes out of it's way to develop and promote from within.  The work is hard, fighting traffic and finding parking, but you work on your own.  Start times work well with my family responsibilities.  They offer perks you can't get from other companies like this one.  

The job is straightforward, management is filled with favoritism. If you work fast you will be picked on to be the work horse. Little to no benefits and no increase in pay. Many times I have been asked to go help a supervisor so they can go and enjoy the rest of their day. Not a place you want to be long term.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Treat all employees who work together at work like family and talk to them.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
This isn't work, this is family.
