Pros

They have great benefits and is in a good central location the majority of the people are really nice, they have a gym and a cafeteria on site.

Cons

Too many chiefs and not enough indians. They have departments that are bare bones and they come in a 7am and leave at 7pm because there is too much work and not enough workers.

Pros

Fellow employees are a good group of people who dedicate and risk their lives on a daily basis to haul fuel for this business. There is a brotherhood amongst most of the the drivers who are willing to help one another out when needed. The pay is decent. However, since we are hauling hazardous cargo, there should be greater compensation.

Cons

There is a huge lack of communication throughout the company. Especially, the communication between dispatchers and drivers. It has been 2 months since our company was bought out by World Fuel and most of us have yet to see any sort of management or chain of command. The work shifts are extremely long, often lasting between 12-14 hours (sometimes 16) a day/night while dealing with dangerous chemicals and some of the worst traffic in the nation. This company will work you to death. We often don't get to see our families or have much of a home life. It can literally suck the life out of you. Finally, there have been shady incidents (I would almost go as far to say borderline illegal) concerning lower management, as well.
