PASSING THE TORCH
Building future success through a hands-on approach
When it comes to Seiji Osawa’s journey at Arrive, one factor has continuously fueled his growth: transparency. “At every point in my career, I was given the opportunity to expand my comfort zone and innovate new initiatives,” he said. By learning from his manager what it meant to build client relationships through boots-on-the-ground fundamentals, Osawa has been able to teach those same essential hands-on skills as he has risen through the ranks. “That is why I am in the seat I am today, to build a framework for teams that can elevate Arrive to its next billion, and beyond!”
Everybody wants something different from their job, but you never know unless you ask. Being in touch with my team and where they are versus where they want to be helps me manage them as people.

VP of Product Design
TECHNICAL TRIUMPHS
Charting the course to innovation
Ashley Menger is working on building a journey map of all of the people, software and business processes from lead generation to payment. “It’s a map I wish I had when I started — I slowly gained this information over time, but needed a way to pass it on to my team,” she said. Being able to better identify efficiencies in their data grants her department the additional time to host an annual Hack Week, where employees stop all sprint work and tackle projects that will impact workflow. “The more we know about current and future strategy, the more our designs can deliver in the present.”
We support a shadowing program where any designer can spend an hour per week with someone in our logistics operations, watching how they use the software and learning more about their daily tasks.
Lauren Mach
Business Development L&D Manager
CUSTOM-BUILT CULTURE
Unlocking employee potential through continuous learning
When she isn’t leading an in-depth training experience or teaching new hires the complexities of being a broker, Mach is most likely praising Arrive’s dynamic to her friends. “There are so many opportunities to shape the culture,” she said. One way is supporting co-workers through the Women in Logistics ERG. “It’s something that gives exposure to minorities in the transportation industry, and shows them how they can grow in a space where they might not see many people like them.” To Mach, helping unlock every employee’s potential is embedded in Arrive’s culture of learning.
Our main goal has always been to support new hires, but expanding to give our more tenured employees extra leadership and professional development will have a big impact on the culture and retention.

An Insider's view of Arrive Logistics

What’s the vibe like in the office?

The vibe is a mix of relaxed and high intensity... Relaxed in a sense that its very easy to talk to anyone in the company (including leadership) and everyone is approachable. High intensity in the way that everyone is striving for the same goals and the work is exciting, challenging, and high impact.

Gary

Associate Product Manager

How do you collaborate with other teams in the company?

We take a very hands on approach to collaboration. Arrive is made up of very knowledgeable people that are passionate about the company and what we do. Our best collaboration happens when we all get in a room to brainstorm, share ideas, and challenge each other until we come up with the best solution.

Tyler

Principle Product Manager

What makes someone successful on your team?

The easy answer is to deliver a valuable yet efficient Product to the business and it's stakeholders. However, within our team dynamic, I believe someone's success is seen when they correctly assess the business' problem(s), deliberate on a possible solution(s) to address that problem, and execute the plan to fix it.

Rob

Product Coach

How do you empower your team to be more creative?

Hire talented people and then take a step back and let them do what they do best. I encourage my employees to aim high and embrace the company vision. Failure happens, but I'm there to remind them that falling short is the price of aiming high - This is almost always a price worth paying. My job is to provide mentorship and celebrate innovation!

Marc

VP of Software Engineering

How has your career grown since starting at the company?

Since starting at the company a year and a half ago, I moved from a mid-level role to a managerial role. Arrive recognizes your achievements and also takes into consideration your career aspirations. Managers work with you to help you develop the skill-set needed to take you to the next level in your career and challenge you to reach your goals.
