Growing numbers wise but stagnant as a company

Pros

Can make what you put in. Must have strong inner drive to succeed as management is very hands off. Work life balance is good.

Cons

Must always watch your back. Managers will make a verbal agreement but will either change their minds or forget, frequently. Get everything in writing. No upward mobility within the company. Success is marginalized. Current "good ol boys club" between managers and senior reps. Different standards for senior reps and employees. Offer no real incentives to succeed. All carrier sales reps are considered equals, regardless of productivity.

Thanks for your post! I'm sorry to hear you didn't feel our PTO was competitive. Not quite sure what you mean by big boys club. We strive to create a positive, flexible workplace culture. Between our vacation, sick, personal and even volunteer days - we feel we are pretty competitive in the market. Summit Expedited continues to grow and expand and our leadership team, headed up by Joseph Kontuly, are making great things happen! We appreciate your feedback and wish you the best!

Pros

Great entry level opportunity for income

Cons

They do not treat you with enough human decency. The parent company AIT Worldwide Logistics is poor at understanding each role and position and only look at final dollar amount earned even during a pandemic. Their shortsighted perspective has lead to large turnover and no support to remote employees. They are trying to scale up at a time that they are losing employees and being forced to scale down due to lack of support for existing employees long-term growth. As with many brokerages, you are either handed a huge account or the support to service a new client is insufficient to grow a new book if business. You must be fortunate, connected, or handed accounts.

Thanks for your post, we’re sad to hear you feel this way. As a former teammate, your review doesn’t match the image of our company today. We have made decisions to ensure we have the right team and right strategy that will lead our company into the future. While we have experienced staffing changes, we have also brought on several new teammates to join Summit’s continued success, including a Vice President with 25 years in truck brokerage. Our average tenure is 3.5 years for Summit Expedited Logistics teammates and our management tenure is over 10 years! We’ve had several well-deserved promotions this past year on our teams as well. Giving our teammates who are seeking career advancement a chance for more challenging opportunities, has always been a part of our culture. We are confident in our team, strategy and partnership as a subsidiary of AIT Worldwide Logistics. We wish you the best of luck with your future endeavors to find a more suitable company to call home.
