18 Wheels Logistics

I believe 18 Wheels is a good place to work for if you're looking to get some experience in logistics/transportation. There's a lot going on and definitely a lot to learn. I learned a lot from my supervisor and enjoyed working with my team everyday. However, there's poor communication between departments and some people are just plain rude. There's also no real benefits and the pay is really low with no overtime. There's really nowhere to grow, unless you're friends with people from upper management. Also, there's an overall lack of procedure in all departments, which directly causes and contributes to the lack of communication and poor understanding between people. Sometimes I think the operation works because of just plain luck.
The company is mostly comprised of immigrants, which can cause somewhat of a cultural clash. I actually heard that they favor Indians/Asians in their hiring process.
As for the office space, it's in a warehouse to it's expected to be a little makeshift, but the company is growing and they're not doing anything to maximize the space, so there's too many people in the rooms. The kitchen is also mixed with the office desks and there's no common area to get lunch/snacks, so people eat at their desks and the place is always smelling like food.
It's a company for people to gain experience and leave, which is what most people do there. Because of that, it always feels like no one wants to be there. There's really no culture and no camaraderie between the employees, save for a few exceptions.
The company is growing and could be a lot better, but there's poor management all around. They also do everything on shared Excel spreadsheets which is just crazy to me.

I had the misfortune of working at 18 Wheels Logistics, where office politics, favoritism, and unfair treatment reign supreme. The toxic environment is exacerbated by community groups that exert undue influence, making it difficult for some employees to stay employed.

The older employees, who belong to these groups, are notorious for shirking their responsibilities and dumping their work on new employees. With no accountability, they have ample time to engage in politics and dismiss valuable opinions from others.

What's astonishing is that despite having all the necessary software, scanners, and technology, the company still insists on manual data entry in their Warehouse Management System (WMS). This archaic practice is a testament to the company's resistance to change and inefficiency.

The lack of innovation, combined with the toxic work environment, makes it a challenging place to work. I would not recommend 18 Wheels Logistics to anyone seeking a fair, inclusive, and productive workplace.


I am former employee of 18 Wheel Logistics during Covid outbreak.  I left the job because I felt there is no appreciation of what you do.  Staff members are not helpful, management does not provide any support. Benefit package is promised after three months but is not given till 9-12 months to most employees.  After a 3-month review I was told my benefits will start after another 3 months. After six months were over I was told my benefits will start after another 3 months. They stretched it to 9 months. I was told by my colleagues that they had to wait for a year before they could get their benefits, the coverage was only $500 a year.  I left the job after 11 months.  It's a very old building, desks are placed very close to each other.  I always feared of catching Covid there as they did not observe social distancing. They are always hiring because no one stays on the job for more than a year.

A typical day at 18 Wheels in my role is handling e-commerce and distribution customers, I help them ensure their orders are fulfilled and delivered  on time.  The industry seems to be really on a boom right now.

I've learned a lot of the logistics industry and how it really moves the world.

Management is over good, there is a manager in accounting who is not good for the culture but I think she is being replaced, other than that I enjoy working with the management team, they provide good leadership which allows us to work on our own but at the same time have access to help.

Culture is above average, the company has a large foot print but the team is not that big, people care about each other and the office atmosphere is positive for the most part.

Hardest part about my job is working with the invoicing department as they are in a different office and communication can be difficult to say the least.

I enjoy coming to work everyday and learning new things, being in a industry that is riding a wave of growth is fun.

Since I've been here, the staff has been nothing but toxic. Nobody here other than some coordinators want to work as a team. Constant yelling among the staff. I swear everyday there's people yelling and blaming each other. The company brands itself as a respectable company with good teamwork and I can tell you that it's none of that. The salary is extremely low with no benefits at all. Owners are too focused on sales and not internal Operations. They hired a terminal manager to handle the Operations. However, the terminal manager is extremely toxic and yells and blames employees all the time and somehow made the situation worse. Employee morale is very low leading to terrible customer service.

This place is a mess. Only when the owners actually slow down and see what is going on with the Operations and care about it's employees does this company have a chance to succeed.

The job is completely what you make of it. If you work proactively, smart, and efficiently, the rewards can be high. If you are slow and don’t enjoy problem solving, you will have a harder time. Work-life balance is also based on one’s abilities since it is a 24H industry, so knowing how to set your own boundaries is important. Once you have that down, the autonomy is great. I like how this job allows me to interact with lots of different people. The freight world is about urgency, so work can be high stress but if you are a high energy person you may enjoy it, especially if you like chasing your earnings.

The person I report to is very supportive. I like the general flexibility to try new things. This can come with a level of unwanted chaos, but I think it’s a good trade for freedom in other areas.

A typical day at work for me involves handling billing for about 30 designated accounts.

I've learned how to do full cycle accounting and how to use quick books in a much deeper way than I did before.

There is a new CFO who has been very involved in helping the company move its technology up in the accounting, its good to learn from him.

The manager in accounting, is a lady that can be very strict, over the top at times.

The culture is pleasant, people work together and generally help each other out.

The hardest part of my job is dealing with customers who avoid us due to not paying their invoices on time.

I enjoy working with the team and that I can walk to work!

The job is what you can expect from a Logistics and supply chain role and requires quick thinking and time management. 
If you like a challenge and an opportunity to grow in the industry then this'd be a great start.
Experience is not necessary, but might help in adjusting to the work environment and increase chances for promotion.

The hardest part of the job is being a liaison between customers and warehouse operations, uncertainty is to be expected. 

Help yourself by not working in this bad company. 
Super high stress, zero work-life balance, and absolute no support from the management. You will not be able to even sleep well if you work here.

Even if you give your 200%, there will be no pay raise or a word of appreciation from the management. Managers don’t know the job and you will be getting absolutely zero support.

You will be throne to the customers and the management will make you responsible for everything. 

They make small things huge which is a perfect example of unskilled management. Their pay and benefits are worst in the market.

Been working here for over 3 years.

Currently run a team managing freight across North America that moves to and from our warehouse facilities.

It's been a world wind learning everything in the logistics industry. The most important thing I've learned is how to move freight in the most efficient manner by utilizing interline services.

Our team is awesome, we really take care of each other.

The management is great, the COO provides us with good support and the new CFO is a much improvement.

There is a terminal manager who can be difficult to work with but we do not communicate often.
