Pros

You are in a close environment with your colleagues and through this environment, competition and creativity thrive. There are a variety of tools available for you to be successful and expect to grind for three months making sales calls...you should know this from the beginning. Due to the short sales cycle, you can realize success relatively quickly and office leadership is there to help you success any way they can.

Cons

Hours are going to be long and the grind of sales calls can create monotony. Zero professional courtesy when it comes to the customers of other brokers...Expect to hear from your customers about the calls or emails they're receiving from other NTG brokers (you'll probably hear that you don't work there anymore as the excuse to take your business). An internal tool has been created to verify if a company is working with NTG already and is intentionally ignored, forcing you to work while looking over your shoulder. This cannibalistic approach to sales procurement is unprofessional and will catch up to you. Commission structures will change at least once a year and you should be prepared to do more work for less. The farm hiring of employees in January and June restricts resources to smaller offices and more senior people are sacrificed to continue training of the new hires.

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. We appreciate all feedback from current and former employees while we continue to improve from within. At NTG, we provide resources and tools for our Account Managers to grow and succeed at every office. The Logistics industry is a fast-paced environment and, just like with any other job, our employees get out of the job what they put into it on a daily basis. NTG promotes employees from within who show the qualities of great leaders, not based on tenure. We have two training classes per year where new employees go through hands-on training, giving them the best tools to succeed in their roles at NTG. We believe these Training Programs are vital to the growth and success of NTG offices across the country. We thank you for your time with NTG and wish you the best of luck in our future endeavors!

Pros

The people make work easier and enjoyable.

Cons

Logistics is constantly changing. This is not a company issue, but you have to be prepared to stay on your toes and adjust on the fly in this industry.

Pros

NTG was a place where I thought I would be long term. Working in the Dallas office, I genuinely felt like I had found a home. I enjoyed everyone I met and the friendships I made along the way. The memories I made with my hiring class are ones I’ll never forget. I sincerely hope our paths cross again. I’d also like to thank my managers for their exceptional leadership. I truly gained valuable skills that I’ll carry with me into my next role. The same goes for everyone I met in NTG’s Austin office during my visit.

Cons

As for the companies decision, I have a lot of thoughts. From my perspective, this came down to numbers on a spreadsheet. What wasn’t seen was the work that many of us put in behind the scenes during a very difficult market, often working stale accounts that had little chance of converting because of past relationships and mistakes. I strongly disagree with the decision. That said, I can honestly say I gave this job everything I had and more. I left it all on the field, and I’ll always be proud of that. Despite how things ended, I’m grateful for my experience at NTG, the people I met, and everything I learned along the way. I’m excited to see what I can accomplish in my next role and where this next chapter takes me.
