Pros

Co-workers are great to work with.

Cons

Miami is screaming for a neutral HR Department as there is no one to see what really goes on there!!!! Management has no idea how to lead and they are the ones to form clicks (embarrassing). Employees are over worked, underpaid and unappreciated. It is a shame as this company is so big. DB Schenker watch the trend and you will see why employees desperately need HR to bring some control to the organization. 1-2 employees resign a month (or every other) review it and help those that stay. Take control of management but most of all take control of your company. Pomote and control employee growth, give raises and you will have long term employees.
