Pros

nice view all day - right by the ocean. people were nice (i've heard discrepancies on this though). union dynamics are interesting and challenging

Cons

anti-social hours (dont expect much time w/ kids or friends - this is a 24/7 industry; and so its more a life style than a career) however, they often give 3 day weekends, which mitigates the time you'll spend at work. you wont hear much directly from senior mgmt, but some ppl like that.

Pros

Exposure to maritime logistics and transportation

Cons

An extremely Toxic work environment to begin or develop a career! Get ready to hear every curse word in the book and then some, not only from Union labor, or coworkers but managers themselves. Also, coworkers exhibit some of the most toxic, conniving, subversive traits of any industry -often with management support. Despite your expertise, education and years of service get ready to be passed up for promotions while those who belong to the good ol’ boy network and co worker clicks give their buddies positions that are neither earned or have the expertise. In a single word: An Absolute Cesspool. Salaries are below market for the Los Angeles area taxed at 30%. Non existent work life balance, offices that look like an abandoned office building with dirty carpets, old toilets , and legacy work systems . Also, as a Maersk subsidiary APM Terminals Lis Angeles fails miserably at Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. Upper Management are a great majority white males, lower positions are people of color but primarily males. If you’re a women this place is only friendly towards females who look a certain way—lots of insecure, domineering male egos who detest assertive and intelligent women.
