Pros

The pay was good for an entry level position.

Cons

I was sold a ton of crap about advancement and how good the company was. Well, the reality was far from it. I was hired to be part of a support team Monday through Friday. What actually happened was that I ended up working as a daytime dispatcher Friday through Monday and that is exactly where I stayed for the entire time I was employed with NFI until I got laid off. I worked 12 hour shifts, every single weekend, four days a week, and only got paid for 40 hours, though I was working 48 hours a week. The company likes to mislabel employees as management so they can work you to death without paying overtime. They are currently being investigated for this exact fraud. They do not promote within and they do not care how hard you work and how much effort is given by employees. Your efforts will be in vain. Do yourself a huge favor and avoid this place as it will suck the life out of you and spit you out without batting an eye.

Pros

Organization is very flat in comparison to other companies

Cons

The "we're a family" culture is always talked of, but in reality it is reserved for those who have been around the longest. Due to high tenure, it was truly unbelievable the sheer level of immaturity leadership has displayed regarding personal/health information, sharing political opinions which has no place at work, golf preferences, layoffs, etc. It is a boys club through and through where boundaries are regularly crossed. Management tends to be very vocal about when they let people go, but noticeably quiet when people leave due to longstanding cultural issues that have gone unaddressed or unacknowledged for a long time. I have witnessed management using the most insensitive and unprofessional language when talking about who got let go or left on their terms. If you are considering the sales team specifically, it leans heavily on traditional old school business practices with limited appetite for change with both marketing and internally. Systems are barely understood to make your work more efficient and newer reps tend to exit within two to three years. Those who have stayed long you truly can't trust with feedback or personal struggles. The role is harped as financially rewarding but often at a significant cost to work life balance and personal wellbeing which is very apparent. If you don't show management you eat breathe and sleep work, good luck. Leaders are highly unreceptive to having their methods questioned, and most have spent their entire careers here which limits outside perspective. Many companies are ahead in terms of flexibility, benefits, internal tools, analytics, and overall culture. Newer employees whom I knew, by large, do not find this to be an enjoyable place to work and left or are debating on it when a new opportunity arrives.
