Pros

Clean office space, laid back atmosphere for the most part, modern. Fun office events and parties. Conveniently located in Plainfield, free parking, no traffic.

Cons

You basically cap out at 40k no matter what position. You will be told to do something one week and the next you'll be in trouble for doing what you were told to do. Managers do not have employees backs because their managers do not have theirs either. Nights blames days for everything and vice versa. No one really knows what's going on. They built their own software that they should have bought, it never works and is a constant stress. I watched the company go from a great organization with great people and great values to a money hungry machine once they won the BMW account. There is zero training and they are constantly hiring because of high turnover.

Pros

Employees are very dedicated and hard working.

Cons

Management has no concern for carriers supporting their business. They do not value experienced employees and would rather hire recent college grads as they are cheaper and keep their costs down.

Pros

I feel that with all of the negative reviews I must give a fair review, because a lot of the reviews are from former employees who left with bad attitudes that nobody really wanted to work with anyways. ProTrans started as a freight consolidation company then grew into a third party logistics company rapidly. After taking on larger customers due to the steady growth they were forced to hire in waves right before implementation of large customers. However, ProTrans realized that they needed to develop talent prior to taking on larger customers; thus began the talent development program (Logistics Specialist title). The program consists of recent grads and some current employees rotating to every major department within the company. I was blessed with the opportunity to be in the talent development group and have been twice promoted since. In fact every employee that stayed a year after the TDP program seems to continue moving throughout the company in a positive manor. Also I want to touch briefly on a few other positive notes. * Well established freight consolidation business segment that is a cost leader to the border *A 3PL segment that is emerging as a star *There isn't another top 100 3PL (Inbound Logistics Rankings) headquartered in Indianapolis, IN *Ability to work with executives to better the business

Cons

ProTrans is working on a software that can meet the needs of all business segments, however it may have been easier and more profitable to just buy a software and configure it to the needs of the business segments and focus on our core competencies. Granted customers buy the "leading edge software" and our engineers still find savings some maybe due to the softwares.
