Pros

Excellent location for some candidates I guess that the fact is growing is a symptom of financial stability

Cons

This company is very immature. The fact that is growing, it has not taken the time to standardize and improve their HR processes which are the face of the company.It has a lack of feedback and follow up by the recruiters. This tells a lot about the company. The company is much disorganized with the hiring process with lack of punctuality and professionalism by the interviewers.

We love hearing about the positive experiences our teammates have had working for WFS! To a manager, there’s no greater compliment, and I encourage you to let yours know personally about your experience if you haven’t already. Strong communication across teams is one of our core values at World Fuel Services — and that includes letting us know what’s working and where we can improve, so please keep up the feedback and communication!

Pros

Some groups in the company have good managers, though those are few and far between. There are some talented people in the company though management is not capable of using them correctly. Honestly don't have any good things to say about this employer.

Cons

Very political environment. Better hope you boss is a "made-man" or you will never get anywhere. Company will typically hire someone for a job, then assign them completely different responsibilities from what was agreed upon during interviews. If you fight it, they will brand you as not being a team-player. Management style is to hire above the current employees, then push the current employees down (or out).

When we hire managers at WFS, we pride ourselves on selecting individuals with leadership qualities that we believe will help operations run smoothly. We’re disappointed to learn that this was not your experience while with us. Your feedback is essential and sincerely appreciate your taking the time to share this information in detail.
