Fast pace work environment where you are allowed to do your job without somebody hanging over your head
Forklift Operator (Current Employee), Brampton, ON – April 9, 2013
Pros: time goes fast
Cons: repetitivness
My typical work day is to unload trailers, load them with empty skids, bins, or rucks, and to place the unloaded goods on their proper locations.
With this type of job I learned to drive the tow-motor skillfully, to be better organizer, and to be good co-worker.
Management is excellent.
My co-workers are mainly dissent and hardworking people.
The hardest – more... part of my job is its repetitiveness.
The most enjoyable part is when I have to organize the storage area to be able to accommodate an extra material delivered. – less

Good Job
Receiving Clerk (Former Employee), Dallas, TX – March 11, 2013
Pros: weekends off and good hours with a great crew.
Cons: limited space to grow in company and no benefits for temp. workers, 3 to 4 years to even be considered for full time employment.
It was a decent job and I would have continued on if I didn't catch Pneumonia. But overall it was a up and coming company with a possible future in a couple of years.I got SAP training from this company and we quality checked everything and made sure it was ready for shipping.

Bad place to work.
Worker (Current Employee), Allentown, PA – February 21, 2013
Pros: you work indoors
Cons: management is terrible.
Syncreon bought out our company and the new managers have been running it into the ground. Our new manager has no clue how to run a business. Compensation is terrible. They also make rules up as they go but they only apply to the workers.

I do not recommend working here.

Warehouse inspection work
ACM Technician (Former Employee), Hebron, KY – October 29, 2012
Pros: the hours were 7am-3:30pm
Cons: management, stationary almost all day, and no room for advancement
I stood in one place all day testing and inspecting radio parts for Ford. I had two breaks and a 30 minute lunch. The best thing I liked about my job were my coworkers. I did not like upper management, they were insensitive and cruel.

Syncreon-York
Operator (Current Employee), York – August 23, 2012
Pros: decent health care, salaried personnel make decent money
Cons: hours change constantly, employees don't come in for work and just walk off job, low pay for hourly, lots of accidents, no ac, not drug free, disorganized, fires people on the spot with little or no notice at all, everyone wants to leave
York is very disorganized and lacks leadership. Hours will change 5 times in a week...sometimes daily.

The mentality is get work done ASAP...that's why there is so many forklift incidents. Forklifts hit people all the time. It's very dangerous and NOT safe.

Management employees are rude to you and walk around and don't even acknowledge people

The – more... place is NOT air-conditioned and a typical summer day could reach 100-110 degrees.

Management is disorganized and doesn't care who you are as long as you keep your mouth shut and work – less

THE SYNCREON EXPERIENCE
Quality Department Supervisor/ Quality Analyst (Current Employee), Trotwood, OH – August 5, 2012
Pros: friendly work environment
Cons: non-competetive wages compared to present similar companies in industry
Syncreon is a great place to work. The culture is very conducive to famaily life. Everyone here is friendly and professional. The Dayton location does work with union employees which provide its fair share of chalenges. The hardest part of the job is learning how to manuver politically in a union work environment. The only issue I've experienced is – more... that the salaries are not as comparable to the industry as a whole, and all coporate positions require extensive traveling; limiting professional growth for some within the organization. The most enjoyable part of the job is everyone's willingnes to teach and nuture growth within the organization. Overall, syncreon is a great place to work. – less

driving a forklift in an air conditioned warehouse
Forklift operator (Current Employee), Belvidere, IL – July 25, 2012
Pros: good people
Cons: work hours
I really don't have much room to complain, I'm happy. I enjoy my job I just hate the shift. I moved home from working overseas to spend time with my son and it's nearly impossible to see him working the hours I'm working. Other then that, I love the people I work with and the job is fun.

A workplace with good opportunities and lots of challenges
Operations Manager (Current Employee), Dallas, TX – June 26, 2012
Syncreon is a strong organization that provides 3rd party logistics services in a number of industries. The organization has experiences significant growth over the last few years and while it is certainly not a drawback, the culture and environment has suffered due to some significant growth pains.

No work/life balance
Manager (Current Employee), IL – June 12, 2012
Pros: do what you are told and keep your head down, you will be fine
Cons: long hours, short staffed, unrealistic expectations
At syncreon the leadership team has no connection, or communication, with their staff. There is no vision, or job advancement opportunities unless you are part of the "in-crowd". Unrealistic expectations along with being short staffed make for a difficult working environment. As long as you do what you are told, keep your ideas to yourself and keep – more... your head down, you will be fine. The long and short of it, I would not recommend syncreon. – less
