Pros

Good pay, some jobs are very easy to do.

Kontras

Terrible hours. When they're running 3 shifts, you can have mandatory 12 hour shifts dropped on you when you have one last hour to go. As well, all forklift drivers are automatic tugger/tow-motor drivers, don't be surprised if they put you on one. They're 3 types of material handlers, Forklift driver, tow-motor driver, and kitter. All 3 are paid at the same rate (barring shift differences). ARO's are the companies version of a floater, intended to fill empty positions on the team. However what happens is an ARO can be stuck on the same job for months, and some team members become ARO in spirit, (but not in paycheck) because they'll eventually learn all the jobs on their team, and be treated as a floater. Bare in mind that Ryder is under contract with GM, so if GM factories run on saturdays or sundays, you'll be working too.

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.

Kontras

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.

Kontras

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.
