MH&L Exclusive 2012 Salary Survey
The typical material handling and logistics manager is a white male, between 50-59 years old, has worked in the material handling and logistics industry for more than 25 years, lives and works in the Midwest, has a bachelor's degree, works for a transportation/warehousing company, received no bonus in 2011, and earns $81,777. This "typical manager" saw no change in his salary over the previous year, and does not anticipate getting a raise in 2012. This person is in corporate/executive management, has been in that role for more than five years and does not anticipate seeking another job in 2012.
But as this special report will make clear, there's nothing "typical" about the people who devote their careers to material handling and logistics.
Although the MH&L 2012 Salary Survey offers plenty of statistics, data can only paint a partial portrait. This exclusive report goes further, revealing the exact words of material handling and logistics managers as they reflect on their challenges, frustrations and accomplishments.
