Positive Reviews From Estes Express Lines Employees
- What makes you most happy at work?Customers that have positive energy . Seeing drivers being so helpful and active
- What are some of the best things about your team?The drivers and dock workers are amazing! They all work very hard
- What did you like most about the interview process?Nothing extraordinary about it. Just an interview
Constructive Feedback From Estes Express Lines Employees
- What does the leadership team need to get better at?Paying their engineers more and providing more substantive benefits. The cost of living has gone significantly up and "free lunch" at the corporate office doesn't pay the bills
- What would you improve about your company's interview process?Not very user friendly. Filters out too many possible candidates due to the algorithm design set to look for a unicorn employee that would never work for these amateurs merely because they expect miracles for McDonalds money.
- What's going wrong and how can it be improved?Slowly sinking ship that will wind up at the mercy of a labor union sooner or later and that will put them out of business due to their poor decision making.
