Pros

The work itself is manageable and has potential. Some teammates were supportive and genuinely tried to help each other despite the lack of structure

Cons

The biggest issues come from management, not the job. Training is extremely limited, yet new hires are expected to perform at full capacity right away. At one point, two brand-new employees were given the workload of four, with almost no guidance or support. Expectations were unrealistic and set people up for stress and burnout. The management style in the LAC Streets JMMs department is the main reason employees struggle. The supervisor in charge often communicated in a dismissive and unprofessional way, creating a tense and discouraging atmosphere. More than four people left our department directly because of this supervisor’s behavior—not because of the work itself. The lack of respect, empathy, and leadership makes it difficult to feel valued or motivated.

Pros

Amazing benefits and opportunities to buy stock per month. Transferring to different locations and states is very easy after 6 months to a year of employment. Training paid for on an annual basis.

Cons

None at this time of entry.

Pros

You can make money but it all depends on the orders you get, how fast you can go, how long you can maintain that pace without getting burned out. Definitely a young mans sport, as the do refer to you as "industrial athletes."

Cons

Like many industries the hours can be long. For the ones who don't make much on running above rate then you can make up for it in hours. If you soak the hours and run you can definitely make some big money. The turn over rate is extremely high there, even in management. I used to be proud of the union but the teamsters in Cleveland are completely worthless, I would bet they are getting paid under the table to not fight for contract negotiations. When I was there the contract expired and they barely fought for anything, on voting day they literally said they wont back us up if we don't pass this contract....so consider that when you want to work for this place. Also the equipment is so old and broken that people were taking the scanners home just so they could have a good one for the next night.
