Pros

Structured, clean, work environment supportive of military service

Cons

Not very diverse workplace when it comes to developing and promoting from within. People with military background are prioritized to be promoted to leadership and management. Leadership at higher levels (site, director, and above) demonstrate very insecure behaviors such as promoting people who agree with them, shouting at employees, and writing managers and employees up because their manager or director "made them do it" instead of specific reasons related to performance. Each Ryder Systems 3PL site is managed as a "book of business" and is almost like a small company creating an environment where employees do not have much of a voice and poor leadership is not easily recognized outside of the site. Not surprising Ryder is not able to hold on to more complicated customer partnerships since they manage with very crude, primitive management tactics and this company culture seems fundamentally engrained. The culture is not likely to change anytime soon.

Pros

Great hours, I have an awesome OS and OM. I was salary exempt so if I worked over 40 hours I was paid hourly after that. I was also paid weekly which was extremely nice.

Cons

No relocation assistance for in-state promotions.

Pros

You get to work on real supply chain problems that actually matter to operations, not just theoretical stuff. Remote flexibility is solid and the work-life balance is fair. The tech stack is modern (Snowflake, Azure, Power BI) and if you're someone who takes initiative, you'll get the chance to own things end-to-end. The people you work with day-to-day are genuinely good and most teams have a collaborative culture.

Cons

Growth from senior level and beyond can be painfully slow even when you're clearly doing the work above your role. Leadership and org changes happen often which resets your visibility and momentum with whoever is advocating for you. Some areas still lack clear ownership so things fall through the cracks or land on whoever is willing to pick them up. Pay doesn't always reflect the scope of what you're actually doing.
