What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Managers and non-managers yell at you, you’re lucky if that’s all., work there long enough, and somebody will threaten to kick your a**. They are micromanagers, and some think they are God‘s gift to their trade. Often left alone on your shift when you should have more help. You will never be told you’re doing a good job. You will always be told if you screw up.. and continually talked about to everyone behind your back , There is never a limit to how much you are expected to do and if you leave it past your shift, you’ll never hear the end of it.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Conform to the company, you will be absorbed. don’t worry about breaks if you don’t, you won’t get more work done.  There won’t be any reviews, you’ll just be made to feel bad, even if you’ve done really good all it means as you won’t hear anything about it. Any attempts at exceptional work will be expected not rewarded. You thought you were going to get that promotion? you’ll get moved to another facility In one you don’t want. Several facilities are rundown and dirty.  No one has time to be polite and fun to workaround, if they are, they won’t be there that long . in fact, try to start a conversation with some people, and they will bark at you and warn you to never try it again. Not sure about contribution? ‘ if you’re still there,  that’s your reward’

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
First 30 minutes wait to hear about or read about an emails all of the things you didn’t do right according to someone. You will feel more comfortable, arriving right at the time that your shift partner leaves.  Expect the unexpected some days will be deadly slow, but most are full Of the same daily routines and paperwork. Don’t try to make any improvements or suggestions you will be frowned upon.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Start on the dock in the morning. Unload and get caught up with overlapping trucks. Put away inventory and reload out trucks for outbound deliveries.

Waterloo Warehouse was a fun and smooth place to work. I enjoyed always staying busy with there always being something to do. I did feel like management treated everyone different with letting things slid with some employees and not with others. Which I think causes problems with the work environment. I did learn how to pick orders and do warehouse inventory. The hardest part of the job was finding material that was not located and put away correctly. I enjoyed the people I worked with very much.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Driving back and forth from John Deere to warehouse

The company is not employee focused at all, they are all about money.. For themselves. They lie about what the starting wage is in all their help wanted ads. They also start at a lower wage than most other local trucking jobs in the area.

When the Union is ran by the company. Its something wrong. And if u not apart of they family far. As married or brother or sister or a son or son inlaw thats not the place for a hard worker. I have seen they let alot of blacks go for no reason. Its just not a good place at all. I would not have any one i know to work for them

Almost 5yrs in a union company who opened up the contract only to give the truck drivers a $3.00hr raise when the truck drivers were the one's who passed the last contract. Good people who work there but management only cares about numbers. Dirty, unorganized & it's only getting worse as deere falls behind. 

Union shop.Most move like molasses and the lifers are most. Trucks are old ,mechanics don't want to fix trucks  drivers don't like mechanics ,mechanics don't like drivers ,dispatch favors lazy drivers and overworks those that come ready to work

Bad management. 
The union workers there are some of the laziest people I've ever seen forcing 1 or 2 people to work there a** off while other people get away with being lazy. If you are not family there is very little chance of job advancement. Work every weekend.

No job security, employees steal from other employees, management is back stabbing and will replace you at anytime for no reason. Typical union job with all the lazy employees. Pay is not good either. Don't bother applying here
