Pros

I am a current employee and I have the opportunity to work on many projects, expand my knowledge of the software and programs used, learn the industry, and work with some wonderful people. Schenker has paid for outside training and I have also travel to other sites for training as well. Our office is located in a safe central area close to the inter-state and mall. I have found the local Management team to be available and engaging. Opportunities to transfer to other positions with a location and with the US.

Cons

More training could be useful, training for new employees, then periodical training as reminders as well to compensate turnover and transfer employees
