Pros

Almost everything you read in the previous reviews is accurate when the rating is 3 or below. Management team is concerned with clients reviewing Glassdoor as a part of audits. So team has a plan to increase ratings. So read with care. Great people who care are keeping the organization going despite management team.

Cons

Get in line and agree with what ever is said or get out. Management team is a dictatorship . No plan and it changes ever week. Be prepared to be spoken to in rude and demoralizing ways. Sales team lies to clients and makes promises that are unable to be kept. Then they lie to senior management about what occurred. Not enough supplies. Warehouses full of smart boxes but no sentries. Poor pay. Really bad, Black Manager makes 20k less then white managers at same level. I raised issue to by direct senior management member - and nothing changes. Business has grown dramatically in the last two years. Support groups have not kept up - no HR to get additional people and zero IT. But management doesn’t want to hear that.

Subsidiary of UPS pretending to be Fortune 500

Pros

Decent salary. Minor progression if you could manage up just like most places, or if you can prove yourself by working extremely long hours, doing 2-3 person's job. Some effort in innovating the services.

Cons

My opinion, huge number of the people here are incompetent at their job and blame someone/something else if something goes wrong. Thus, manage your own expectations if you want to get any good work done. Middle management that I deal with turns a blind eye to many client complaints and feedback. Micromanagement happens from the top and tolerates toxic politics. Near-zero HR policies because there is HR is almost non-existent - 1 or 2 person managing all of the global offices. Same for many other important business functions.

Is for a self starter

Pros

Learning experience, requires you to challenge yourself and knowledge. Must be a self starter and able to learn your job and processes as you go

Cons

No support for your role, you must figure things out on your own. It’s very fast paced in the process. It’s a sink or swim company
