The place was total chaos Ive worked for a big LTL company in Jersey for years no comparison I was told the lot was too full to pull in at the guard gate to go back out on the road but when you try to get back out you cannot move its total gridlock the only good thing I can say is I had a dedicated delivery for Red Bull so as soon as I got a door I was unloaded in about 10 minutes but I could not use the door I was given because the yard is completely full theres nowhere to maneuver nowhere to turn around their drivers just cut you off total chaos security guards all should be retrained, if management cant see this theyre blind I think theyre right their own reviews and post them all as good,, but theyre not.
Great people and very Professional. Wish other places were like SalSon !
I worked at Salson as a truck driver. Let me tell you they are very rude, talk down to you. They set you up with very little guidance or how to really be successful at your job. If you have questions they just talk to you like you’re dumb. It was the worst experience I have ever had at a job! Stay clear from there! Believe the reviews.
Anthony Berritto has created opportunities and livelihoods for SO many people, this man is hands down the best guy I ever worked for or watched operate under any circumstances. I worked at Salson for quite a few years between 2005 and 2012. Ive been in transportation for 19 years now and Ive learned alot but nothing more important than what I learned at Salson, I owe all my logistical wit to Anthony and his staff. Anyone leaving a bad review of working here is lying to you and themselves and theyre probably not cut out for this industry. Salson is a family.Jason Kacavich
Difficult place to get in and out but the load fast. You have to call the number on the entrance gate and wait outside(on the tiny streets)till they call you back to get in.The girl at the shipping/receiving office is sweet!
The BEST JOB {AND BEST BOSSES !} Ive ever had the pleasure of working @.
Just called only to get hung up on. how rude.
Zero star for Salson CompanyAvoid this place at all costHours, hours for a simple delivery or pick up.
Yard is small and there’s no parking, the people are nice and they load you fast. Park on the street and see security.
Thats one to many stars! This place is a disaster, and Im being nice! Unless you dont want your truck or trailer damaged, avoid this place @ any cost!
The people employed here were very good very pleasant but getting in the dock was very difficult to say the least
This place is a Disaster!! Theres stuff everywhere in the way. And its always that way clearly. The containers are parked everywhere and thats the way 5his place is run.
Checked in 15min before apptmnt. Security gaurd has the stinkiest attitude. An hour later I went to find out what the hold up was, again stinky attitude. All the gaurds should be fired. I had no issue when chkg in with them. Terrible people. Once inside the lot, the gaurd told me the wrong place to go and the lot is covered with broken bolt seals. Good luck not getting a flat tire in this place. Altogether, the olny good thing happened here was the yard jockey backed my trailer in for me which was nice because the spaces are tight.
Had a driver run me off the road crossing 3 lanes. Called their main number and was sent to the safety team, the gentleman who picked up was extremely rude, I would list his name but he introduced himself as safety, I tried to ask him how his day has been and he replied with a sharp what do you want. After explaining what took place, he was very unpleasant, argumentative, and abrasive. It was clear this safety officer could care less about safety. Ive called many other trucking companies about safety concerns, every other company jumped at the opportunity to improve. Not Salson. Customers considering hiring these drivers, remember its your brand that they are representing.
Do not take warehouse street as you might get stuck in traffic. Overall its a Saigon place, park on the street, check in and wait hours to get a door, also they are not responsible for any damages done to your truck while on their property. I gave it a try for a load that paid good but this is my last time coming here. Just not worth the time and hassle.8 loads cancelled within 2hrs . Do not go there. BEWARE !!!
Dropped my trailer in yard on a Saturday afternoon for a Tuesday unloading, due to labor day. I recieved a call at 16:00 my trailer was empty. Crew did a nice job as everything was floor loaded, they did not leave a bunch of trash and yard jockey positioned trailer for an easy exit off of the property. However, it took over 40 minutes to receive a signed copy of BOL and trailer release. The young lady that was supposed to do this just ignored me. Well, I waited patiently and finally someone else from another department ( I think dispatch) went and got the paperwork and sent me on my way. I appreciate the extra effort someone else took to cover a coworkers behind.Gave them a second chance, bad mistake on my part here 24 hours and now can not find paperwork or trailer. Unorganized company with no real leadership. Well Carlos the yard jockey thinks he knows everything, You do have that. Owner operators stay away, do not make the same mistake I did.
One of their drivers hit my car on the highway and just kept going like nothing happened. By law thats called a hit and run. Salson thionk they are above the law. be careful.
Very tight. Dont make a right turn. I didnt see the sign at night and tried to. Go straight. Theres a pilot right up the road.
No respect for Truck drivers don’t come here please just let you know.
Horrible place to come for pick up. Security guards are rude and mad. Worst yard jockeys ever. The trl i was suppose to pickup was bloked by 3 other trailers. I try to talk to yard jockey to help me move them, he ignored me and kept driving around. I tried to move them with my truck security says no, that Im not allowed to. I spoke to another yard jockey who finally helped me but wasnt happy helping. Looks like theyve been forced to work there.
Its a very busy place but due to that the yard is chaotic and unorganized so get ready to play wheres also with your trailer. You are allowed to park on the street outside and the staff are friendly though
No room to park or make a u turn
Demo a 2021 Freightliner Cascadia with the 5.0 Detroit assurance for them to possibly upgrade their Freightliner fleet
Horrible place. Drivers need to park out side where there is no parking walk to the entrance staff and they take hours to provide information. Also, Rude employees yard employee started yelling when approached and did not care about the parking situation outside the salson property.
I have been here at Salon for over 5 years now, Im very happy with them. Theyre very family oriented and work hard to work with you in emergencies.The dispatchers work hard to keep you moving so youll make the money. They have new equipment so you have a reliable rig.
Got in the loading dock, got load it fast and out...👍
Please Truck drivers don’t come here for pick up or drop off it will take for ever, I am here for delivery from two days still waiting the worst customer service in my 5 years Truck driving experience👎
The five stars is for the docker we experienced just now named Kevin. A true delight. This yard is PACKED and can take a lot of time and tears to navigate, but Kevin is a master at his craft and is above and beyond at his job.
I have worked for this company over 3 months now as a breakdown coordinator in the shop. I enjoy my job and my coworkers, management is great they will help you if your in need. If you do good work and stay on top of your game then there will always be work for you at salson logistics. :)
Great experience with Sal Son! Very professional staff, great environment including staff kitchen & gym, great pay. Family owned which is a major plus! Would recommend to anyone looking for work!
They dont have room for parking, very hard for to pick up a load, you have to park on the road and walk to customer
Flexible hours to the point where you still have time for family, friends, school, or a second job.
Company is friendly,easy to get along with,staff is understanding and open minded,plenty of opportunity to grow, constantly working/moving about and very low turnover rate.
This place could be better if it wasnt for all the things they got going on all at the same time its so much going on in this place is unbelievable and they dont even have room if you going to this place make sure get there before 2 pm its a in and out but pass that time you are in for a good fun oh and make sure you have a lot of patience cuz let me tell you the place is very very very tight
As a driver for SalSon for many years, I have to say they have the best dispatchers I have worked with. We have never had any issues that they could not assist with and I have always appreciated them looking out for me. Not to mention they always have top of the line equipment and are constantly improving and innovating.
Ive been driving for SalSon for almost four years doing dedicated runs and I enjoy my job quite a bit. Good pay if you are willing to work. Great dispatchers that will work with you and work around your schedule (such as Dr. appointments, etc.). I look forward to another four or more years with Salson.
Salson is a great place to work.. dispatch are great problem solvers.. the company treats you like a person not a truck number.. they keep you busy all week long and they pay u every week on time.. I love working at this company...
For a owner operator pay is good, but company wise they are very unprofessional and the work ethic is on the ground and theres very little respect for the drivers.
Professional and family run organization, brand new equipment, best dispatchers in town. Providing a safe, easy to work with and quality environment is consistently the top priority. Highly recommend driving for SalSon.
The staff was decent but very unorganized. Anthony jr. is a piece of sh.. hire thru the supervisor wait 3 days to see him just to say get to say final say not hired flexing through daddys muscles. I didnt wanna believe the negative reviews of over worked underpaid etc until my short experience beware.
Friendly atmosphere and a good place to work.Lots of freight and more cash for your pocket if willing to work. More professional drivers needed . Join the family.
Do not pull frieght out of here!! Been almost 4 days and still havent got my load ready!! But had an appointment then security at gate laughs that you had an appointment and says good luck your load will be ready eventually! Fire everyone and start over!!
A great family oriented company that emphasize on the employee values and potential. The work environment is wonderful, fast paced, great teamwork and you can always get great advice from the Management!
Great place to work. A dynamic and fast paced company. The days fly by. Work with an awesome team.
Would not recommend to anyone. Stay far away from this facility. Im currently in a lawsuit with this company after 4 of my drivers received parking fines totally $4,000 after being told to park on the side of the road to wait for a door. Not only is that bad but they also have huge signs stating DO NOT ENTER PARK ON SIDE OF ROAD. NJ state police has been contacted and will be helping during our court case. Hope these lazy people have enough money because theyll be paying 2.1M total in our suit.
Awesome Employees, Hard working Drivers, Top of the line Equipment, Full time Chef, Full GYM, Great pay for Drivers, Warehouse and office staff. WHAT MORE CAN YOU ASK FOR? Come Fill out an application and receive a free meal! JUST ASK FOR SAL
Honestly, only work here if its your last resort, the trucks and trailers is trash. Youll make 600 to 700. Easy work. But if Pat your dispatcher run 🏃🏃🏃He will tell you to do things that dont make no sense and if you get on his bad side. Hell purposely put you in the worst equipment and get mad when you break down. The office will not support either
I was vaiting 2 hours for door, and 10 min unloading 20 palets.
Ive been with Salson Logistics for 25 years and couldnt been happier or ask for anymore. Great family, Great work place. If you have any questions about the company ill be more then happy to answer.
Great company to work for!!...Pay is good..family owned and operated.. Owners/Bosses always take care of any issues, concerns, and/or needs I may have ASAP!!! I see a future and an advancement for me here at Salson!!
Apply at your own risk, unfortunately the bad in these reviews are true, the most damaging part for me personally is the way they play with your pay, they cut your check in half and promise to have it fixed by next week. In which they make the same mistake again leaving with 400 bucks for the week for your family. They also do not fix payroll mistakes on the spot, so your screwed until next Friday, in which your pay will be incorrect once more. Regarding the trucks almost no maintenance are done on these vehicles, chemical fumes make way to the cabin(converter cleaner) which is highly cancerous, I would like to see my kids graduate so I cant breath chemicals every day. Also if your a supporter of president trump, do not make that known here. Payroll is mostly Spanish and will check your Facebook for political stuff. If they dont like what they see be ready to see 300 bucks a week ripped out of your check. Which am sure is illegal
To small not to much room for trucks to turn
Worst place for delivery it will take 48 hours to deliver your load.
Great friendly environment. I love and enjoy the people I work with and for. I highly recommend SalSon as a employer.
Avoid! Nasty nightmare place! Guard is nice so he gets the single star. But when you pull up to the guard booth you are told to go back out and park on the street (where its illegal for trucks to park) then you can walk up and check in. Tight Uturn right at the guard booth to leave. I never went in, because Im not leaving my truck on the street in a very bad neighborhood!
Salson its one of the top company I have ever worked for. the work schedules are flexible. great staff very lovely and kind. I have been driving trucks for them. never felt part of any company like salson does make you feel. trust me the best place to work in peace and harmony.
Great company to work for. Pay is great and plenty of work! Up to date equipment.
Slow and bad service
As a worker there is no place to used restroom its so nasty in there the board of health need to come out. work 9 hour and only a 30 min lunch break not cool.
As an employee/Driver I recommend working here. The hours are great amd plenty of work all of the time.
SalSon Logistics is the prototypical family run organization. From top to bottom, SalSon employees did their best to make my logistics problem an overall great experience. Whether its dealing with customer service, dispatch, or even billing, SalSons team instilled trust in me that any problem I had would be taken care of effectively and efficiently
Staff was nice, they do get you in and out as quick as they can, but the parking is kinda crazy. Whaddya expect for New Jersey though? This is coming from a long haul driver. Cant speak for the local work. Make sure you have ALL the information you need before you go in to get your load, P/U# B/L# and any other #you can get from dispatch. Also, get your truck and trailer plate # too. Take your cell phone, just in case you dont have the right #.
The Best in the Game! SalSon ensures you have no headaches! Everything will be as discussed!!
Great place to work at. large facility with amazing dispatchers! go team Salson
Ive been working for salson as a truck driver for over 12 years.this is a family operation and for the last 12 years they make me feel part of it. This is a good company, with nice hours. I enjoy driving for salson because I get to be home each night. FAMILY
Had a really bad experience with this company. 1.) Went out to train on 5/2/2018 as an owner operator with one of their company drivers and realize how poorly the drivers get treated.2.) me the driver I was training with work more then 15hrs in one day. I call them and told them if I was going to get pay for this day and they immediately said NO. I wonder what type of business is the owner of this company running.
Salson trucking has old school values with the way they treat their employees and take care of their customers. Kudos to Anthony and his team.
Good company, not a bad to work the dispatchers will keep you moving frank and Manny very good at there job.
Great place so far looks like ill be using my professional skills to enhance my career to the highest level ..
I love seeing the Salson trucks driving on the Long Island expressway on my way to work! The new trucks look beautiful as well, good job Salson! Keep it up!
A real terrible company to work for real unsafe environment lift kids do not properly work on their physicals district box vehicles have too many problems they mess around with your pay they do not pay you properly they pay per day but they based your work per our boxes are falling over on employees When you call dispatch for help they do not send I hope all store managers in all the stores that they deliver to our very rude and I’m noxious people their vehicle say 25,000 pounds with airbrakes but on licensed commercial drivers are driving for this company if you are a driver with a CDL I recommend that you do not drive for this company
A great place to work, nice environment, very good drivers and always willing to do more, is always busy, if you are a driver looking for employment, Salson is the answer, you wont be disappointed,
Great company family oriented solid money and benefits Ms. Collins and staff were wonderful highly recommend to any driver owner and operators.
Great equipment. Awesome group of guys. Highly recommend!
Absolute joke of a company do yourselves a favor do NOT pick up a load from here been here twice for a preloaded trailer sat and waited just for load to be canceled. somebody needs fired
Terrible place absolutely no parking needles and garbage everywhere extremely tight only positive was friendly lady at recieving
Dont even bother place is the worst. Street truck parking and rude staff. Place is a dump
Payrate is very awkard
DO NOT WORK HERE. Place is a Scam and will not pay you for your work.
Very tight place, bad yard to back up and turn around. Bunch of containers and cars
There NOT willing to work with people with felonies on their background checks who has served their time and looking to better their lives. So I really dont want to even give them one star. Shame on them.
I placed my resume on Careerbulder and i was called by the recruiting office and they where very nice and set me up with an interview Fast was explained pay in detail and what i loved most was that they have there own chassis i dont have to wait 4hrs at the piers and they have there own container Handler... been with the company 2yrs and looking to retire from here !!!
A good place to work and really great co-workers.
Good people. If you work hard you have a job for life
This is the worst place in history to work for and Im not exaggerating. They are so unorganized that the dispatch never know what is going on or what your next task is. They use all old and raggedy equipment. I had to switch trucks like every other day from breakdowns or other equipment problems. They basically use their drivers without paying them anything. No matter how desperate you are do not go to sal-son. Look the other way, its not worth it. It will be valuable time wasted from your life.
Salson is a good company. I have no complaints.
Hard to get in and out
Horrible turn 2get in gate, if they have you drop on the street - good luck, terrible exit as cant turn right. Have to go out down a curvy street where trailers are dropped both sides.If you have to pull a loaded trailer out, its in the back where only space for a day cab to operate, but they expect sleepers to pull 53s out wwith barely enough room IF u r perfect. High curb keeps u out of drainage ditch, but will destroy your aerodynamics in front while u r trying not to scrap trailer.Avoid business here if possible, if not, make hard guys pull loaded trailer around for you.Would give Zero stars if possible.
Great dispatch and customer service department. Consistently striving to win and expand their operations
Good company they treat you like family...
Im a driver for salson and my experience here has beeen great! I always have my own chassis and they keep me busy with work never slow. The trucks are new and well maintained. I love the fact that theres a kitchen in the terminal, make great food! so if your looking for a place to call home salson is the place to be!!
Horrible place to pickup a load no space for nothing
I have been at Salson for nearly 14 years. There’s been good and bad days but one thing I could say for sure is that I’ve been treated like family. Fast paced and growing company with the best equipment in the ports. I’ve been to many ports in the country and the Salson container chassis are far beyond others. They are simply the best. Management is fair. You work with them and they’ll work with you. Most importantly is the consistency in work flow throughout the year. I know this sounds like a commercial but I’m truly greatful for the 14 years that I’ve been employed at Salson.
I appreciate salsons dispatch& good pay also the pay
Laid back work place constant miles great ppl I been here for almost a year and Im still happy most.of all I injoy haveing a life on the weekends as this job gets me home on weekends I dont plane on leaveing and hope more drivers will make the change to come here
