Pros

Work was pretty easy and repetitive 90% of the time, outside of when the drivers would have issues. Good place if you are entry level and want to get industry experience. People I worked with were great and fun to be around.

Cons

If you don't have someone championing your work and your successes, promotions may be few and far between. The pay is not competitive. There is never a shortage of repetitive work. (Yes, this is a con too. Higher ups have a hard time accepting that they cannot have everything they want at once. As a result, requirements and priorities can change often. They are behind on using the best, most widely accepted frameworks AS400. There is a lack of adapting to the reality of a situation with regards to when loads are not picked up or not delivered on time when unexpected problems arise. With all these cons in mind, take it with a grain of salt. There are politics in any business, and overall Stevens is a solid place to begin or grow your career. Just keep in mind that if you're wanting to rush up the corporate ladder, tenure and birthnames mean everything here. Couple the right attitude with patience and you could achieve that goal. Just don't expect to make a decent salary out of college or even if you have professional experience that could be beneficial to the business. Long hours 7:30am to 5:00pm plus one Saturday every three weeks. Close to 50 hours a week.

Pros

- The structure of the building is very strong and would be sufficient during a tornado. - The filtered water hydration stations are handy.

Cons

In this modern‑day allegory of the Eagles’ classic Hotel California, the story begins with the first red flag. Not the waving, crimson‑colored beacon kind, no, it starts with the small pause that makes you question whether something actually happened. Is that really the method? Is that a fax machine? Do people actually hide in the bathrooms? Working there can feel like assembling a puzzle without a box lid, while passerby drop random pieces onto the table, pieces that don’t even belong to your puzzle. As a generationally deep, family‑owned and operated business, the boundaries stretch endlessly, extending even to neighbors of a cousin. Bright eyes dim quickly, office directions are given by changes in carpet patterns, and punctuation is treated as optional. For an industry that deserves appreciation and elevation for the undervalued work of the professional driver, the ownership has no problem taking accolades for miles they’ve never driven, pushing out the changemakers, and clinging to a rinse‑and‑repeat method that mirrors the very definition of insanity.
