Good pay but poor work-life balance for some roles

Line haul driver

Recommend

CEO approval

Business outlook

Pros

Decent place to work once you get established seniority, pay is good no complaints about management, most line all runs are nights or schedule working weekends.

Cons

Work life balance doesn’t exist if you’re on the wild board you work when they tell you to whether it’s your kids were there or not
