Pros: I've worked as a Logistics Coordinator in the Atlanta, GA office, and the team support really helps when things get hectic. Sometimes, you can find a decent rhythm, especially when you're not dealing with urgent global transport issues. They offer a hybrid work model which is a huge plus.
Cons: Work-life balance can be tough, honestly. You're constantly managing shipping deadlines in the logistics industry. This means long hours are pretty common, especially at month-end. It's hard to really switch off when you're always checking emails for urgent supply chain updates.
Advice to Management: Management should really look into better staffing during peak times. It would help a lot with burnout, especially for us Logistics Coordinators trying to hit all those global transport targets.

Pros: Some departments, especially those not directly tied to immediate shipping operations, offer a decent hybrid model. As a Logistics Coordinator, I sometimes got to WFH a couple days a week, which was a nice perk.
Cons: It's definitely not a fully remote company. Many critical supply chain roles still require you to be on-site most days, especially in the Chicago office. It can be tough when unexpected issues pop up and you have to rush in.
Advice to Management: Consider expanding remote or more flexible hours for roles that don't absolutely require constant on-site presence. It would help with retention.

Pros: As a Logistics Coordinator, I've found the hybrid work setup helpful. Most weeks are a solid 40 hours. The Atlanta, GA office tries to support work-life balance.
Cons: During peak shipping seasons, it's tough. You're dealing with global transport issues, so longer days happen. Work flexibility really drops when it gets busy.
Advice to Management: Try to staff better for peak shipping seasons to ease the burden on individual Logistics Coordinators and freight forwarders. More consistent remote work options would be a plus where feasible.
