Desk Job

Pros: people & culture

This is a great place and company to work for but it is a FULL-TIME desk job, which is not for me, but everything about this organization is great.

Stable company with lots of opportunity and pay increases IF you do SALES.
Transportation sales rep (Current Employee), Georgia –
Pros: plenty of work to keep busy with, benefits.
Cons: micro management, always blame employees for things that go wrong.
Decent pay, good benefits, time off, etc. There is always something that you can "do" because you manager will always tell you to find new customers if you finish your immediate tasks. Management is definitely in your business and frequently reviews you. There are bonus and substantial pay increases if and only if the branch you work in is having a – more...  successful year. You really have to be a successful sales person if you expect to advance financially. – less

Good for the first few years, then its time to get out
Account Manager (Current Employee), Raleigh, NC –
CH Robinson is a good place to work when you are young coming out of college. But after a while it gets old when piles and piles of tasks are put on your plate with no end in sight.

The management feels like they own you after 2-3 years of being there.

Structurally very top heavy with GM's making a great deal more than what other employees make.

Co-worker – more...  environment is fun and they like to treat their employees to parties. That was the best part of the job. – less

Good place to learn but not stay
Transportation Sales (Former Employee), Atlanta, GA –
Pros: health care, 401k, profit sharing, training, employee stock purchase, corn hole
Cons: 10+ hours daily and weekend shifts, management, compensation
Typical day at work. You must be seated, logged in and working by 7:30am. While working at CHR for almost six years I believe I can step into any logistics role and excel with little to no on the job training. Since all the the employees must take a personality test we were all "Type A" personalities and got along very well. I also made some good friends – more...  while working there. The hardest part of the job is cutting carrier's rates making it hard for them to stay in business while seeing a 20%+ profit margin on a load. The most enjoyable part of the job is the completion of a large logistic project or securing the first load for a customer. – less

Women beware
Transportation Specialist (Former Employee), Eden Prairie, MN –
Cons: boy club - women be ware, do not apply
As most transportation oriented companies, CH Robinson promotes the "men" before the women. I worked there for there for 2 years and the men were highly favored even though the women twice as hard.

Good Place to work
Transportation Service Agent (Former Employee), Eden Prairie, MN –
Overall it was a fun experience with working with truckers. That was the majority of the fun was contacting the workers for documentation that was needed in order to pay them.

Great company that puts value on their employees!
Transportation Operations (Current Employee), Sugar Land, TX –
Pros: rewards, bonus program, benefits.
Overall it is a great company to work for. Everyone is like family there. I learned a lot from working in the transportation industry these past 11 years. I enjoy not being micro managed and getting praised for doing a good job. There is never a dull moment.

This job should be for college students or people looking for there first office job
Indexer/Accounting Clerk (Former Employee), Chicago, IL –
Pros: free lunches on occassions
Cons: not a place you will stay at for retirement
The work environment if you like being harrassed on daily then this is the company for you. Moving forward with other position they only want to reward employee that are highly LIKE by management. The hardest part of the job was dealing with employee's and nothing was of much enjoyment. Management were not as motatived and engerized as they should of – more...  been and was not as rewarding to the people that deserved recoginition. – less

Good Environment
Contract Import Account Management Support (Current Employee), Knoxville, TN –
Pros: casual dress, teamwork environment, they bring in breakfast & meals on occasion
Cons: payscale lower than competitors
In general I like working here. Heavy data entry and accuracy is important.
They keep temps (or contract workers) off the payroll a long time (some as long as a year). Putting them at risk if they have health issues. But they treat you as if you are an employee, example: invite you to the Christmas party, etc. Treat you pretty much like an employee – more...  except when it comes to benefits. – less

Tv/ break room
Floor Lead (Former Employee), Oklahoma City, OK –
Pros: i liked training my group and new people.
Cons: lots of favoritism shown, it could be a really nice place to work at.
It started out to be a great job. But it came to the point where you had to be in a little circle of people to get anything. If you were not in this little group, you were basically shoned. They picked only their friends to move up in management and showed favor on a daily basis to their friends. (upper management).
