WHEELZ UP

The business is ran terribly. The management are full of lazy people who don’t want to do anything but expect you to do everything. ALL OF THEIR VEHICLES HAVE OUT OF DATE REGISTRATION, INSURANCE, AND INSPECTION OR THEY DONT HAVE ANY AT ALL. This job cares nothing about your safety, all they care about is getting the job done. Unless your vehicle is broken down somewhere you are expected to work in all conditions. For example, there is a van that has a cracked windshield, out of date inspection and the horn doesn’t work. It’s been like that for months now and management has been informed of this multiple times but still hasn’t addressed the situation. Not having a horn is a SERIOUS SAFETY VIOLATION, let alone having a cracked windshield that goes across the entire windshield and having no inspection or paperwork for registration. This is a DEAD END job with TERRIBLE benefits and HORRIBLE PAY. I would look else where before even thinking about applying here. 

This is a company that could care less about you. They only care about you delivering their packages. They expect you to deliver a package at a rate of one package every two minutes. The only way to keep that pace is to run every package to the houses and run back to your delivery van. And they don’t want you to take breaks. They tell you that if you take breaks your going to be behind on your deliveries. They only want you to take your lunch break at the end of your shift when you’ve delivered all of your packages and are driving back to the warehouse to drop off the van. That’s not a lunch break. If you are taking your two fifteen minutes they’ll call you and tell you you can’t be taking your breaks because you won’t get finished on time. And if you’re behind on your deliveries they’ll fire you. They’ll fill your van up with so many packages you can’t even access the cargo to get the packages. The management and dispatchers only care about the money you make them not you.

I was a supervisor here and it was a rollercoaster, Management is absolutely ruthless, they will not give raises and if you ask you are lucky to have a job after that request, Lots of shady things behind the scene i made sure to show my drivers at the time the text messages and nonsense that were said and practices that were used. From making drivers quit instead of firing just so they don't pay them unemployment to taking long to reply to workers comp, there were even times where they would adjust peoples hours. 

I knew this company was iffy the minute I noticed NO SIGNAGE OF HAZARDOUS materials. They deliver flammable liquids and products in tunnels and the vans have no signs whatsoever that's a BIG NO NO

Again if your desperate by all means apply but just be ready for the headaches and management not caring about your health and well being

If you don't screw up your driving record and need an entry level job, this one is for you. Aside from that, don't try to make this a career. Management position is nothing more than a "Glorified Substitute" position. You will be substituting drivers when they are off because they don't have enough substitutes.
You will get NO PAID HOLIDAY. NO PAID VACATION. NO PAID TIME-OFF, and don't expect a pay raise, some waited over 2 years to get one. This is just a very basic, no good health insurance, entry level job.
So, if you have a clean driving record and need a job for the time being, like I did, this might be good for. It is not a "backbreaking job" but by no means you should be there until you retire.

A typical day at work consisted of me arriving greeting everyone then checking to see my van # and logging into the app to see what route location I'd have for the day. I learned to properly load my van as well as be very aware of time management. The workplace culture was sociable since we all were doing the same thing we pretty much all shared the same stories. In my opinion the hardest part of the job was working apartment buildings and carrying over sized packages that were big enough to cover half the back of the van. The most enjoyable part of the job to me was receiving snacks every so often when I'd arrive in front of customers home. 

When i would get there in the morning i would go to my printer and grab the sheets that had printed out the day before. Once i would get the sheet i would start pulling parts that the different shop have ordered. Once the parts on all the sheet were done i would go to the parts elevator an get the special ordered parts an take them back to my work area to short. Once they would be shorted id get the invoices printed out for each shop  by 730 my first driver would come in load up an go an by 9 all 7 of my drivers were in loading up for there first load each driver would have between 3 an 4 loads aday depending on how busy we were.

Management changes things constantly, will fire you if you do what they said earlier and they change it last minute to fit their convenience. They claim to be 'open door' but if you say anything to them, they either ignore you or call you a crybaby. They tell you to clock out for 30 minute lunches even if you don't take one. They are disrespectful towards their drivers. There is practically no advancement. There are no raises. They literally tell you, that you are replaceable. They will cut any corners they can to save money

dispatch don't know how to properly respond to your problems on the road. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
stressful, management is always on the lookout to cutting your benefits. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
the work itself is ok but management mad it difficult, I am glad I moved on to another dsp.

I came in experienced. The hiring process was smooth, but took a while due to very thorough Amazon processes. Was welcomed by the company owner with a warm greeting and a sense of confidence and security. Typical managerial challenges with miscommunication, lack thereof or lack of transparency. Money is great and worth the work. Work is steady and hours ALWAYS available. Team is supportive and focused. Hands down the best!
