Hey fishes, I am hearing Tiger Analytics is rescinding offer letters floated to candidates. One of my acquaintance was supposed to join as analytics consultant but they rescinded the offer 3 weeks before his DOJ. Does anyone have information regarding this?

We found out one of our drivers may have a drinking problem. How? Bunch of empty bottles in his truck. Should I ask about this or just let him go to avoid being held liable in case an accident happens?

My current title is Buyer. I handle the purchasing of the larger categories of direct materials and train any new Buyers. I also manage outsourcing and quoting of raw materials for new business, among other things.

I am looking at taking over capacity planning for manufacturing, while keeping my previous responsibility.

What could I suggest for a new title/promotion? There isn't an existing position that I would be filling, and I want to show career growth on my resume.

I'm glad people can order things online and get them the next day; but it makes my job harder because a lot of the people in my company don't see that we just don't have the infrastructure for that kind of operation, so they need to order it BEFORE they need it the next day

I'm in logistics and can tell you from experience, getting mad will not solve the problem

Looking for input on changing positions from a Buyer to an International Logistics Coordinator. I have international freight experience and have a potential opportunity. Financially, the move makes a lot of sense. Would this be good for career trajectory? For context, I have been a buyer for several years and this is my first 'real' job, so pretty early in my career.

How did your companies adapt to the Covid wave in the beginning? What measures did you take to ensure your business kept rolling?

What state is best to work in logistics? I am thinking somewhere along the coast, but I am not sure where exactly.

I understand why so many cities are trying to limit cars and make their neighborhoods more "walkable," but it really complicates deliveries. No parking spot? Then I can't really make a delivery. Has anyone here ever gotten a ticket for not being in a parking spot while making a delivery?

For those in the SCM industry, what is your job title and your daily responsibilities?

Thoughts about drones making deliveries? I'm really not sure I like the idea. I mean yes, it has the "cool factor," but it makes me worry about our jobs disappearing.

I feel bad for the people who got into supply chain management and are burned out. I feel like they get the short end of the stick, and it truly is not a bad career at all, I think maybe some of them just aren't cut for it.

Amazon has changed people's expectations with their overnight deliveries and yeah, that's convenient and everything but WOW are people getting impatient with shipping speeds!

Hey everyone. Do you have a good work-life balance in your job?

Wondering how electric vehicles are going to change the teamster business and it's kind of got me worried. We are going to need a LOT of charging stations and I just can't see it happening

What do you like the least about working with supply chain management?

Do you think logistics and supply chain management is an industry that can function effectively 100% remotely?

I’m burned out and looking at ways to leave the long hours behind while staying in the industry. How have you used your SCM skills as a freelancer or applied to a side hustle?

Managing a supply chain is not as simple as it sounds, and I don't think we get paid enough for all the pressure that's being up on us
