Pros

You can make good money

Cons

It's seriously like working in a frat house, and that isn't my thing. Plus I am for women's rights and you're not allowed to hire many women at all, and generally no one over 30.

Total Quality Logistics Response
12y
To our former Lexington employee – We’d like to address these serious accusations. While we acknowledge that roles in the transportation industry are not an obvious career choice for us (yes, I’m a woman), women are some of our most successful brokers at TQL and we work hard to maintain a diverse workforce. As the broker position is an entry-level sales position, we do have many applicants who are early in their careers. This is true of any sales-driven company. Perhaps it felt like a frat house to you, but many employees appreciate the energy that brings to the company. Also, our Lexington team has a great history of successful women. Just in the last few months, we have had another woman move into sales management, we have a sales rep who is a key player in our national "Women In Logistics" group, another female recruiter has been promoted twice in less than a year, and best of all a woman who was one of only a handful of founding members to launch the Lexington office in late 2011 has now moved on to another city to lead and open an office of her own. We are stronger because of the women at TQL. We welcome as many strong women as we can get. We would however appreciate the opportunity to discuss your concerns. Please contact our HR department. Your identity can be kept in complete confidentiality, but it is important we understand why you feel this way and what experience may have led to this opinion you have formed about TQL.

Pros

Unlimited potential when it comes to earning commission and reaching your career advancement goals. Everyone is a resource and you have tons of support from senior brokers and managers who started in the entry level position as well. Culture is amazing, there are endless events to attend and an open floorplan community atmosphere that welcomes networking. Location specific is right on the water with lots of perks. Internal promotion goals and commission metrics are clear, and you work for what you receive in an office with likeminded individuals. UNCAPPED COMMISSION is obtainable!

Cons

This is a role where you put in what you get out. You need to put in the time, stay focused, stay driven on your goals. If you are not hungry for success, then this is not the role for you. You need to be willing to work hard for what you earn, and you will see that outcome. That will take time and effort. This is a long-term position with unlimited potential if you work for it.
