Poor training and communication

Operations Manager (Former Employee) - Kenosha, WI - February 3, 2023

Company is poorly ran. Little to no training and communication was terrible. No raises or annual raises unless on a dock worker. It has good work life balance and majority of people are good employees which I enjoyed working with.

Pros

Work life balance

Cons

Bad pay, terrible training and communication

Not too bad if you like to go fast.

LTL Driver (Former Employee) - Dayton, OH - January 23, 2021

Not to much good to say. Normal go fast ltl company. Not enough employees. Equipment junk. Not enough money. No overtime. The management could care less about you. Just get the work done. Then they come to you at the last minute and say the terminal is closing.

Pros

Got left alone

Cons

No overtime

Stay away

Dock Worker/Forklift Operator (Former Employee) - Kenosha, WI - January 22, 2020

Upper management does not care about workers at all, no raises, no bonuses, they only care about themselves.They will not try to help the employees, they hire Supervisors that have no knowledge of what they are doing or how to do it. They will not fix the Forklifts, half of them need tires or don't have working lights on them,

It's not the worst job

Truck Driver (Former Employee) - Kenosha, WI - January 3, 2020

Its not the worst job in the industry they finally have a dispatcher that knows his stuff. I enjoyed working there in the past, somethings changed and I personally haven't enjoyed my time there. Its what you make of the job.

Awful terribleness

Class A CDL Driver (Current Employee) - Kenosha, WI - December 6, 2019

Please dont work here. They will cause family issues; due to 12-14 hour days with a departure time average of 830 am.. not even a single working palet jack to use. No overtime whatsoever- if you get a job that pays 16 an hour you will make more working the same EXACT hours as here because you NEED to work at least 55 hours and no time and a half. Would be totally worth it if they had electric Jack's or even working Jack's, you knew what time you were coming home, and if their wasnt a different schedule every week. Definitely a company that would rather pretend to care and blow smoke up your a** than actually fix any real problems. Only work here if you dont mind a job environment where the docks literally are so undercard for that the entire facility is sunk 12 inches into the ground.

Poor driving job

Class A CDL Driver (Current Employee) - Kenosha, WI - November 19, 2019

No work life balance. Never know when you're coming home. Poor equipment, poor shop. Not even working palet Jack's for drivers. No overtime pay but need to work 60 hours a week. Feel like a number not an employee. No one seems happy.

Come and grow with us.

Operations (Current Employee) - Kenosha, WI - August 9, 2019

a typical work day consist of making sure our freight is unloaded properly and loaded properly and make sure our customers receive there freight on a timely fashion. I've learned so much here at Expedited Freight Systems, how to bill, use CLII, management is always helpful into guiding you to do the job correctly. the culture is the best part you can work around a lot of individual and everyone is helpful to there co-worker to get the job done right. I truly feel the hardest part about this job is just the weather other than that this job is easy to learn. the best part of Expedited is you have room to grow and achieve more important roll but you have to put in the time and effort and commitment to grow and Expedited will not look pass those commitments

Overall EFS is a great place to work. It has afforded me to take care of my family, be home to see them everyday, and progress with my career. I would recommend to others as a place of employment.
