Holland reviews about "training"

Lack of Training, specifically job duties

Management sucks and has little man syndrome. I was working for an incompetent staff that avoided confrontation whenever possible. The loaders (aside from a very select few) don’t know how to load or maximize cube. They just want to bay/dock their freight and let you load it as if they’ve never heard of progressive loading or how to build a trailer load. Lack of bars/deck tables/straps make loads unsecured for transit resulting in a lot of damages and recoup projects. Who uses zip-ties to tie down a pallet that weighs 500 lbs SMH?! Certain management are too busy trying to look like the “Boss” instead of actually being a leader. Too busy being on their phone with that corny Star Wars ringtone that would constantly go off during meetings and preshifts. They’re constantly melting down the operation and you’ll be waiting 4 hours to get an empty to load freight that has been sitting on the dock all day. They’ll want you to stay late because they can’t get their staff motivated to do a decent job. Just bark orders over the intercom and not follow up. They won’t walk the dock. Overall, working here is a solid option C. If you have other offers you should take them. The day I left I had a new job before I left the parking lot if that tells you anything. Good luck.

Horribly incompetant management, little to no training, constant fighting among co workers with no recourse or reprimand and very undesirable hours.

Poor training, little communication. All old men with no interest in helping newbies

Seniority/Union based so as far as a better shift or position good luck, you'll be 60 before that happens. Open dock so prepare to freeze in winter . Don't talk to terminal manager without union rep because you will be treated entirely different and not in good way.

little training, miscommunication, easy to make mistakes

Lack of training. Understaffed. Repetitive computer entries.

Long shifts, no overtime pay, poor work environment, lack of proper communication and training from management, high expectations

The training is non-existent; the company culture pressures supervisors to simply avoid confrontation with union workers, and become lazy; nearly every shift is awful (e.g. 2am-12pm, 3:30pm-Midnight+), and your family-life will assuredly suffer (no social life); management cares about unimportant metrics (weight over revenue); the career opportunities for someone highly-educated/ ambitious in operations are non-existent, and Yellow corp. would 9/10 prefer to hire an external candidate over developing talent from within.
