Now known as Core-Mark

Is this your company?

Three options when it comes to pay increases. Get comfortable making what you make, climb the ladder, or leave. - Demand Planner Eby-Brown Employee Review

Pros

A lot of good people work there. They promote from within more frequently than outside hires. (likely due to cost)

Cons

A lot of not good people work there. Home life stripped away as you climb the ladder. Your choice is make your job your life, being at works beck and call at all hours, or dont get promoted. No such thing as a raise in your current position. You either get promoted or leave if you want more money they will not negotiate. They consider most position changes lateral moves that come with no pay increases just more responsibility and stress. Its a boys club. If you're in the frat thats the only thing you need on your resume to climb to the top.

Pros

There has been a lot of change with the company in last two years. All the change has presented many growth opportunities and led to a positive environment. Coming to work every day is exciting and each day presents new challenges that are welcomed

Cons

Free Telehealth would be a great benefit to add. There are so many benefits to choose from here.

Pros

Weekly pay, benefits, not too difficult to change shifts if needed. Lot of freebies (candy, snacks, travel mugs) from management handed out to staff on holidays and when cases are too damaged to ship. Enough hours the vast majority of the time. The lack of professional behavior (gossip, fights) and blind eye or indulgent behavior in management can be a welcome distraction from the monotony of the job. Health and safety training is thorough for what average workers are expected to do.

Cons

Most employees including management only have the faintest grasp understanding technology. There is very little little credit given to the couple of maintenance workers who literally keep the merge running some days. Most equipment is out of date verging on out of code. OSHA guidelines are held up to the light or stomped on depending on the day and manager. The lack of professional language and dress on the floor extends to pickers bragging about their workplace affairs, picking fights, and showing up intoxicated. Many of the "better" workers are only there because they have too many felonies to be hired elsewhere. Favoritism is key to advancement. Almost too easy to become a forklift operator and have had a couple accidents and a few close calls.
