OHL Employer Reviews

Good company with tremendous growth over the past 5 years, but below the average compensation package.

A typical workday would begin with not knowing type of mood the manager would be in which would determine your entire day. The typical mood is mean irritable condescending and rude. Your spoken to like a child and put down publicly in front of your co workers. Your told to do un-compliant work procedures and reprimanded if you don't. If a true government – more... audit was performed in this office it would be shut down and fined.
Management plays favorites so even if you are a wonderful employee you will not be rewarded or treated fairly if management has decided you are competition. You are better off being a puppet where you allow your strings to be pulled than a compliant hard working and ethical person with a drive to succeed. In fact the more drive you have the more you will be seen as a threat and will be pushed out the door. The manager will throw employees under the bus even to their own customers.
The hardest part of the job is absolutely working with the manager and the unsolicited abuse she dishes out. Human Resources is fully aware of the reign of terror and has not remedied it in any way. – less

I work in the corporate office and have had a few career opportunities that were a good fit within the organization. I've been lucky to have a great manager and supportive executive leaders. My work is diverse, and allows me to manage multiple projects at once (which is a challenge I enjoy). I have great departmental co-workers and supportive colleagues – more... throughout the organization. OHL is a faced-paced environment offering the opportunity to showcase your talents and grow your skill-set. – less

OHL does not care about the employees one bit unless you are one of the 'brown nosers' of the crew. They require certain production results for each worker, that is supposed to be a set rate for everyone, but again goes back to how much backside you kiss. It took over 6 months to get paid for the sorry excuse for a raise we got, and I am still waiting – more... for unpaid overtime from several months ago. DO NOT WORK HERE UNLESS THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ELSE!!! And if you must work here, I'd advise you to keep looking for other employment. Back to production, I would catch complaints from management for 'only making 115%' when they know I can easily get 120+. While the guy next to me that has been there going on 10 years pulls an 80% and nothing is said to him. They don't care you, your family, or situations at home. One of my coworkers was pointed for calling in because he was in a pretty serious accident on his way to work. Wonder why this place is always hiring? Now you know. – less

Typical day at work: many "fires" to put out; fast-paced; always something new about the logistics industry to learn.

Learned: a lot about the logistics industry.

management: constantly changing;

co-workers: are fun and lively

hardest part of job: making time to focus on my personal/family life -- employer/work-related responsibilities take much – more... of my personal/after hours time.

most employable part of this jobs: pay and benefits make this job most appealing, as well as its flexibility to work from home. – less

If you like being micro managed then this company is for you. Current managemnet is made up of males only in the Plainfield area. They tend to do write ups on anyone for any reason. If you like living in constant fear of losing your job, then dont come work for them and not to mention Human Resources is a joke. So happy not to be working there and because – more... of the current management, I would sugget you goe somewhere else unless you are desprite – less

Strong mental focus on work and completing my goals whether small or big. Keeping strong through the day's of work.

A typical day was picking and packing I learned alot about scanning manageing time and working with a team.

company had good system of doing things and kept employees informed of hrs and changes.Was able to have fun andbe productive at the same time.Good opportunities to advance for hard workers

Terrible dont waiste your time. The management is horrible. Your schedule constanly changes and the raises are not worth it. Top 3 worse companys i have ever work for OH HELL.

Management is very unprofessional...not considerate of life outside of work. They don't give advance notice of overtime but will say that its mandatory. Advancement is made difficult.

a very fast pace job that sometimes test your patients but can also challening and rewarding

Get rf scanner, orders came across, get the idems needed to take to tpackers on my reach truck. Sometimes I would help pack. co-workers and mangement were good.

Love working with the customer's of a warehouse because the things you need to know they right there to show you.
The workers was great didnt have to stay on our backs to get the work done because we had a mind frame when we walked in the door we came to work.

I loved meeting people.I loved the challenge.I loved helping people and solving problems. I learned how to bill orders.

Pulling orders and loading trucks.. Doing shipping and receiving.

Good work life balance, room for growth. Seem to have some issues with Management getting the message to hourly employees.

I DROVE A FORKLIFE AND I ENJOEY DRIVING IT ALL DAY. I LEARNED HOE TO WORK BETTER WITH OTHERS. i ALSO WORKED IN ORDER PULLING WHICH WAS A FUN AND FAST ENVIRONMENT FOR ME.

scan item put in the cart learned how to use scan gun had fun with the people i worked with really wasnt a hard job

A typical day at ohl consist of getting to work and preparing the devanners to unload containers. Containers are mostly twenty foot containers with 40,000 pounds of coffee that has to be put on pallets and stored away in locations that are called lots. The hardest part about the job was stacking certain kinds of coffee that came in real tight burlap – more... bags. These bags stack to high for a regular lift so we would have to use a ten thousand pound lift to stack. This takes alot of skill with using your equipment. – less
