Pros

Pay was “ok,” nothing special

Cons

BEWARE FRAUDULENT GLASSDOOR POSTINGS - during my tenure, the HR staff actually had the gall to encourage staff to get on Glassdoor and input positive reviews, then would get entered into a raffle! Outrageous but true, I know!! Please read further for an HONEST review Benefits AWFUL - $400/year 401k match is a joke! Insurance is pitiful. Believe ownership owns the insurance company, as you will have nothing but problems with insurance. Was declined for a medicine before, also declined any help on a treatment I underwent. It was all paid out of pocket like I didn’t have insurance! Sick time accrued 4 days/year. Vacation awful too, 8 days/year until you’re there for 3 years. Ownership - doesn’t care about anyone no matter how long you work there, only $. Short staffed in every department - every single department is understaffed, all the drivers and staff know it. Again, all about the $. This creates a ton of stress for all those involved, except ownership of course. Loyalty - nonexistent at Stevens unless you’re a driver. For drivers you could literally take a month off with no contact and Stevens would take you back. This is ONLY due to their horrendous pay and thus inability to attract drivers, so they hold on tight to whatever drivers they manage to persuade to join. Work life balance - full time is 42.5 hours/week and some weekends. Overtime and even working off the clock is encouraged, this company does some serious, borderline illegal things to save a $ Culture - management is toxic. Rarely IF EVER will you be encouraged or recognized for your efforts, instead, you will just be berated and told to work harder. If you suggest something and it costs any $ whatsoever, you will be ignored. Career opportunities - none really, unless you want to work 60-80 hours/week in management role. Otherwise you will make tops $50k/year if you’re lucky and talented enough. Bottom line - I wouldn’t recommend this company to my worst enemy. Employment there will stress you out to the max. 99% of other companies will provide you much better benefits, a decent culture, and work life balance.

We certainly appreciate your feedback on your experience working at Stevens. However, we do need to make it clear none of our Glassdoor reviews are fraudulent. Furthermore, as reviews are anonymous, there is no way to ‘Hold a Raffle’. We have actively encouraged employees to post to Glassdoor, which has been suggested by our Glassdoor representatives themselves. The reason behind the request is that, just like restaurant reviews, the majority of employees who are not disgruntled do not think to leave a review. This means that those who look up any company’s review may not get an accurate, well rounded, view of what the company is actually like. We respect your opinion on the “cons” of working at Stevens but based on the feedback of others we don’t agree that everyone has had the same experience. We are in a constant state of continuous improvement and appreciate your constructive criticism. Stevens may not have been the right fit for you, but we wish you the very best wherever you career takes you next.

Pros

- The structure of the building is very strong and would be sufficient during a tornado. - The filtered water hydration stations are handy.

Cons

In this modern‑day allegory of the Eagles’ classic Hotel California, the story begins with the first red flag. Not the waving, crimson‑colored beacon kind, no, it starts with the small pause that makes you question whether something actually happened. Is that really the method? Is that a fax machine? Do people actually hide in the bathrooms? Working there can feel like assembling a puzzle without a box lid, while passerby drop random pieces onto the table, pieces that don’t even belong to your puzzle. As a generationally deep, family‑owned and operated business, the boundaries stretch endlessly, extending even to neighbors of a cousin. Bright eyes dim quickly, office directions are given by changes in carpet patterns, and punctuation is treated as optional. For an industry that deserves appreciation and elevation for the undervalued work of the professional driver, the ownership has no problem taking accolades for miles they’ve never driven, pushing out the changemakers, and clinging to a rinse‑and‑repeat method that mirrors the very definition of insanity.
