Excellent Company, Great Benefits, Management Heavy, Antiquated Processes
|
|
Good Pay, Fantastic Benefits, Fun Industry I loved the company and felt so grateful to have such wonderful benefits.
|
Antiquated Processes--The software doesn't support the business needs. Instead of upgrading the software, there is a lot of 'blaming' for missing things the software programs should be catching. Checks and balances system is to run reporting at the end of the day to see what was missed. Then trigger an email to the person who made a data entry error. Horrible process. Leaves you feeling frustrated daily.
Computer Equipment would constantly go down. Would take forever to sign in.
Management Heavy--A lot of freshly educated college graduates filling the slots of managerial positions without any regard to seasoned experience.

Fix the software. An investment of efficient software to clean up the process can only be a good move for the company. Updated, efficient software is much cheaper monetarily than dry runs and frustrated employees.
Fresh new educated managers bring lots of energy and ideas. Temper it with some experienced managers to gain a good balance. I had an experience of my manager not speaking to me once I gave my notice until 30 minutes before my exit interview. Bad business there.

Jacksonville, FL

|
Worst experience Jacksonville fl

I can't think of one
|
nearly all employees at the Port are very very unprofessional in nearly all areas.
so much back stabbing, lying and sexual oriented actions breeds there.

Great Company to work for if you like the transportation industry

The people you work for are great. Great benefits and good pay

Limited opportunities for advancement. This a very profitable business but the number of positions available are limited.

Great company fully invested in the employees
|
|
Great benefits, internal hiring program, the people are awesome, pay is fair, bonus program is very generous.
|
Open office environment is new and no one likes it!
Seem to be outsourcing some jobs. They have stopped investing heavily in employee development.

Good place to work.
|
|
The freedom to do what needed to be done with a new start up company.
|
Management was a little top heavy, however, they all understood the ocean shipping business.

Great job if all you want is a paycheck.
|
|
-Good benefits
I enjoyed working here and left on my own terms. The people that work at the line level are great. I would do this job again after I retire and want something to get me out of the house.
|
-Weird hours (ships don't stop moving)
-Lack of mobility due to external issues (economy)
Work is repetitive, mind numbing, and unchallenging.
Not really a con but an observation - almost all managers and senior management were of WASP descent. Kind of odd for a company that is deeply integrated with Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands.
