I worked for Allstate Express Trucking in Melrose Park Illinois. They never paid me a dime after running to loads. Truck was returned due to carbon monoxide. I just saw an email for taxes and I couldn't open it. How could they send this and I was never paid a salary? I will not stop until you're shut down. We are just waiting for the lawyer to do their part. I promise you we will not stop!!!. You are still hiring people to rob them. You will not last very long. Allstate Express Trucking is a crooked company. truck was terrible and smell frowsy( human stale smell)
Cons
Trucks and trailers get repossessed frequently. I witnessed vendors coming to the office to take back equipment due to non payment.

My DM is awesome...Joe. The people are great. It's just the non payment on time is what I have a problem with. At 1st it was great... but after 6 months... it all changed. I'm trying real hard to hang in there. But if it doesn't change soon... I'll have to go. I hate it too. I like this company and the people.
Pros
Great miles, great people, if you need work on your truck. Love's, Petro, TA. every 20K oil change & PM. I like that. If checks would just come on time I'd stay here. It's been hard for me and my wife to deal with this.
Cons
Non-Payment on time, it's aggravating. Something needs to change. The big boss needs to step in and change things. Other than that. I'm making great money here. Getting an advance is not easy right now

**********TRUCKS BEING REPO'D***********
******************THIEVES******************
******** STOLE THOUSAND FROM ME******
I worked for this company for 2 1/2 years as an owner operator in their lease purchase program. After paying for my truck for 2 years directly to allstate they were to pay the company whom they financed the truck from. Come to find out after 2 years of making weekly payments my truck was up for REPO. ALLSTATE DID NOT MAKE A PAYMENT TO THE FINANCE COMPANY FOR 10 MONTHS.I was told by the finance company they tried countless times to set up payment with allstate in which never happened and now the finance company wants the truck back. I have asked for proof that the payments were caught up and never heard anything from them and now I can’t even get a call back. STAY AWAY but I'm pretty sure they won’t be in business long being that I'm sure I'm not the only person this has happened to.

They are in my strongest experienced opinion on their way out.Bait and switch tactics are rampant.Unhonered agreements.The list goes on and on.
There is less than a handful of decent honest people there.Turnover is high not only in the drivers sector but also in the rest of the company from what I have gathered. They paid me 80% because I found and negotiated my own loads.Which is not hard at all to do.I from what I was told was the only one doing this and getting 80%. It was way more than mileage pay.So….Existing ASE drivers.Demand 80%!!! Even if you don't find your own loads.But know what the lane pays as well. I was promised a L/P truck after 30 days in a filthy 725,000 mile rental truck that I had to go to MO to retrieve. They in the end HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO L/P TRUCKS TO OFFER! Because in my opinion the company's credit is not allowing them to do so? STAY AWAY DRIVERS! You have been warned...
Pros
Honestly no pros worth noting. Shady at best.
Cons
Not sure how to describe.But the management ,safety,and owners mentality is in my opinion criminal in nature.
