Working at A & K Railroad Materials: 3 Reviews

A typical day at work consisted of answering phones, greeting guests, helping with accounting invoices, scanning invoices, and posting of mail. Also preparing and labeling packages to be picked up. Management was not readily available for interaction with employees. Good employees were not acknowledged and/or rewarded for good, honest, hard work. There were a lot of inconsistencies with regard to policies and procedures. I did like my job and I made some very good friends while at this company. I am not one to be micromanaged.

Pros

Worked well with family life and an occasional outside activity

Cons

Micromanaged. Inconsistencies with regard to Policies and Procedures

my uncle was my boss and he was a great person to work for but the company does not pay well at all and you are always traveling with no compensation it just wasn't worth me being away from my family for prolonged periods of time for the little amount of money that i was making
