Pros

Was close to home to care for wife

Cons

Really bad atmosphere, employees treated terrible. Because family said I was changing, couldn’t do it anymore, and had to quit or lose family and sanety. None stay more than 1, 1 1/2 years, don’t care about hot they talk to you. Theres no home time w 12 to 14 hr days then complain that you look tired. Bad people

Thank you for your feedback. We know that our industry can require a longer day at times, especially for our leaders in operations, and we compensate our operations people who have to work a longer day than usual due to hiccups that may arise. We also balance things out by jumping in to help each other when needed, it’s a team effort and we back each other up. We also have team meetings and one on one meetings to discuss concerns and ideas, and we encourage our people to take part. This let’s us know what’s on everyone’s mind, and helps us get better at what we do. Thank you again for your feedback, and we wish you the best.

Pros

Home Time Is Reliable ,Easy Work (No-Touch Freight).

Cons

There is no overtime pay, and the benefits package is limited. Drivers are often required to work 60–70 hours per week at straight time. Routes are assigned on a first-come, first-served basis, so there is little predictability—you typically don’t know your route until the start of your shift. The equipment is equipped with radar-based safety systems, including speed control and automatic emergency braking, which can be restrictive and take time to adjust to, contributing to a more stressful driving experience.
