Pros

Aeronet was a good company to work for years, until the person that developed the corporate culture left. After that it was all downhill with one mistake after another from upper management. There are literally more managers / directors / presidents than operations people

Cons

Aeronet used to be a wonderful company to work for, but no longer. They regularly force their employees to skip lunch work overtime come in on weekends. If you're not a family member, or a friend of the family member, you have no chance of advancement. If you have any constructive criticism, nobody will listen to you, and you will be badgered and ridiculed for making your suggestion. It's a little bit like high school; everyone's in their own little cliques gossiping about each other. If you have a concern to bring up to the manager, he will not return your email, or call you back, and most of the times he doesn't even show up to work because he doesn't have a car.

Aeronet Response

To: Former Employee – Ocean Export/Import Supervisor in Bensenville, IL I want to thank you for bringing these items of concern to our attention. We believe that Aeronet, founded over 35 years ago, has a strong core culture based upon Integrity, Commitment and Passion for our clients and associates. What started out as a family-owned business has expanded into an international business staffed with respected industry veterans. Many associates have been with the company for many years. However, we truly value your opinion and will definitely work towards improving our relationships throughout our organization. We understand the value in people and the part we all play in servicing our clients. We also understand that sometimes things go wrong but we do everything we can to make them right. As part of our corporate culture we have an Ethics Hot Line where anyone can submit a complaint or concern anonymously where it can be addressed and communicated back to the filer. It is disappointing to me that we lost a valuable person but also that you did not bring this to my attention since on numerous occasions I’ve personally spoken with you on the telephone and in person and I asked you about your work conditions and your work environment and you didn’t make me aware of your dissatisfaction. We wish you the best in your future and again we appreciate you alerting us to these concerns. Sincerely Executive VP & COO
