YRC Freight Reviews

During the interview the position was sugar coated, it sounded much better than it actually was. The atmosphere was extremely negative. While being introduced to the staff, the majority would give their name and then say something negative about the company. The amount of training I received was completely lacking. I was left alone numerous occasions without proper training. Other cons include exposure to the elements during majority of your shift, whether it is 100 degrees or negative 15, working on holidays- all holidays (if your shift falls on a holiday you are working it), working over nights (you will work X weeks days, then X weeks nights, then switch), as a trainee I worked 10 hour shifts (12 hour shifts for permanent hires) (this did not included the meeting everyday before the shift and the discussion with the relief supervisor after your shift to update them.) There were numerous times that I would see dock supervisors work their 12 + hour shift without a lunch because they were so busy that they could get away to sit down and eat. During the before shift meeting there were times that the supervisors were told that they needed to hand out five write ups in one shift. They were then told if they did not give the write ups they would be given one themselves. This caused unnecessary hostility between dock supervisors and dock workers.

Not really any wife or I could find.
