$Current Employee - Apr 5, 2025
Pros
Not one good thing I can say.
Cons
The office people make you feel very uncomfortable, the terminal sucks, the truck are full of bugs and pesticides. The vehicle that was giving to me was killing me with some weird smell like cables burning
Current Employee - Feb 3, 2025
Pros
Truck is in good shape, has a refrigerator. Trucks have an apu or opti-idle. I prefer this, quieter than an apu. I almost never have to idle the truck. They offer salary pay. You get paid the same no matter how many miles you drive. They also pay for hometime.
Cons
I'm an otr cross country truck driver. The short miles and sitting are not for me. I hate being paid to not drive. I prefer mileage pay and running hard. Most loads go Midwest or eastern USA. I'm not a big fan of driving in the southeast, too much traffic. Easier getting around out west. Most loads come from brokers. You will have to download half a dozen apps to communicate with them.

Pros
Salary
Cons
Salary also means no paid vacation, no layover/stopoff/detention pay, no raises. Equipment is garbage, maintenance and safety dept. are both completely inept. Current ceo(original owner’s kid) is a toxic incompetent joke of a manager and ran the company into the ground.
