Total Quality Logistics Reviews

Pros

Very good pay and conditions

Cons

Long hours alot of travel

Pros

- Training and mentorship that not only teaches you how to be an expert in logistics but teaches you the necessary items to be successful in sales - Culture environment is my favorite; everyone is here to help you succeed brokers, trainees, manager, leaders etc. it's fun, there's a lot of fun activities and things they do that break up the day - non-micromanaged work environment (yes there is metrics to reach and yes they push you to be better than you were yesterday) but this not an environment where management breathes down your neck every sec of the day. They set goals and help you achieve them. - the money that my broker and brokers make in such a realistically short period of time is motivating

Cons

- its alot of hard work to be successful and it takes patience and diligence to achieve it - not for the excuse makers - you deal with adversity and external factors daily its how you handle it and critically think along with problem solve that will make you successful - show up to work on time.. its very easy just do it.. people get let go after 10 times not showing up to work on time and blame TQL.. its not TQL fault you cant leave for work earlier.. if your running late communicate proactively they are here to work with you and provide flexibility but that is something that is important to them .. dont just no call no show or show up an hour late.. it reflects how you will interact with your customers later down the line to mgt.

Pros

A full-time career in an industry that will never go away! I do not know many jobs that pay you above average annual salary as they teach you to master the freight and logistics industry. TQL's benefits, package, career opportunities, and resources can lead you to making 6 figures in the span of 8-12 months. Working at the Daytona Beach office has been nothing but a pleasure. We have a great recruiting team including Will Barnack who has a natural talent for recruiting some of our best performers. All of my co-workers have been great, motivating, and helpful. Our SGL and STL leaders are always on top when it comes to organization, operational improvement, and much more. If you are looking for a REAL career opportunity, feel free to contact us!

Cons

A successful career does not come by in a week. At TQL we work in an industry that does not sleep. This job challenges you to be your best every day when it comes to timing, organization, customer service and much more. At TQL we don't have many cons, our cons actually make our career. (working late, dealing with customer relations, problem solving and more)

Pros

Honestly for an office job, they have treated everyone like family. They encourage you to keep pushing when it gets tough. There isn't a single person in this office that I can't go to and ask a question. The SGLs are always looking around and seeing who needs help. We have weekly goals to keep us focused and if we feel we can't meet them we talk about what changes to make and how to be proactive to reach them goals. The LAETs that we have share what we have done successfully and what helps each other. We are a family here!

Cons

The cons are told you during the interview time. In the beginning stages of prospecting it's gonna feel like more effort is being put in than the reward given to you. Your work/life balance is going to be tested but it isn't a forever thing. You are growing your own business within a business. So you have to know you're gonna make sacrifices that don't seem fair in the beginning. The visual turn around makes it hard some times. Seeing people come and go is something you have to get used to, it's gonna happen. But, it's based off of their own performance and you just have to remember that. So the cons are a bitter sweet thing. You are told up front about it however saying and doing are two different things.

Pros

This job is perfect for anyone who loves a push and heavy motivation at all times! During my interviews with both my recruiter and hiring managers I expressed to them that I wanted a job that will push me to be my absolute best and a place where no one will allow me to get to comfortable. This job has exceeded my expectations, the lessons I've learned will be lessons I will carry on throughout my life. Everyone I work with wants to see me do my absolute best and these are people I will never forget. I could not have asked for a better work environment.

Cons

Yes, this job is super motivational. This also means that there's expectations that you must meet in order to be as successful as everyone here wants you to be which can definitely be overwhelming and even stressful. You are expected to dust yourself off and try again if something was to go wrong, granted in logistics a lot can go wrong ; you stand out if you're able to have something go wrong and not let it faze you enough to halt your success.

Pros

The opportunities at this company are limitless. When you start you have to grind and keep grinding but you have your teammates and leaders backing you up. Everyone is extremely supportive; it feels like a giant family. I've made more money at this company then I'd ever thought I would make in such a short period of time. Came shortly after college and while all my friends are stuck making 40-70K per year I make well over 6 figures. This is a Work hard Play harder Lifestyle. Yes, you need to put in the hours, but you make enough money to do whatever it is you want after. I thank TQL and my leaders for the opportunities given to me. This is a company where you can make your dreams come true.

Cons

Long hours, if your weak minded and a slacker you won't make it. Money doesn't just fall out of the sky. But if you want to come work hard put your head down and grind, it will feel as though you are printing money.

Pros

I never thought I would find a job where I love coming to work each day. The team at TQL Boston feels like an extension of my own family. I also make pretty decent money. I am not a top earner (yet), but I make more than enough money to live a comfortable lifestyle in Boston. I used to live paycheck-to-paycheck for years, but now I don't even pay attention to when it's pay day. I hope to work here until I retire.

Cons

I constantly find myself checking emails at home, on vacations, when I am out with friends, etc...It's unfortunately necessary if you want to be successful here. It took me about two years to build up my client base (this is about average). I sit right in the middle of the sales floor, and sometimes it can be tough to concentrate.

Pros

This is the kind of job where hard work pays off and you will get out of it what you put in. Once you get out of training you essentially get to run your own business. One of the biggest pros for me about this job is the control I have over my own career and how much money I make. It’s really up to you and the effort you put in will determine what your paycheck looks like. If you are willing to work hard and do what it takes that can be a golden ticket. If you are willing to really invest the time in yourself this opportunity can change your life. If you are looking for an easy job where you can sit around all day putting in minimal effort while still making a lot in commission, this job is not for you.

Cons

Dealing with trucking companies can be frustrating. While most are hard working and responsible, you will sometimes need to deal with rude, angry and unreliable people who blame you for things that are completely out of your control. This aspect of the job requires very thick skin.

Pros

Worked here for over 4 years with like minded people. Good energy in the office and you are presented with a lot of responsibilities to run your own book of business. It's a good way to start your career by learning the accounting and credit side of how to operate a business. If you have an in with a family member or friend that needs to move a lot of freight, you could have a good long career here and make great money.

Cons

You will quickly find out that this is a pyramid scheme and that the leadership will only help out the employees who are within striking distance of hitting 4K/T12. They do this to hopefully grow the office and hire more employees in a coordinator role. Favoritism is a real thing and leadership will even help out people who have no experience being a broker and who lack the experience to sustain a customer base.

Pros

- Amazing Co Workers - Immediate Management seems to care a lot - Pretty Easy Job - Culture Events rewarding PTO or food for employees - Pay to work ratio is good

Cons

- Management will NOT define policies and rules - Management only acknowledges the bad things you do, not the good things. - Proformance is highly stressed, even when Management openly gives you more work to do. - Proformance Quanity is prioritized over the Proformance Quality - Questionable Business Practices in other departments. - Management works like a clique, if you aren't in the group you won't be considered for opportunities.
