Current Employee - May 9, 2017

Excellent reefer company. Top notch equipment. All trucks have fridge, APU, and inverter. Little to none micromanagement. No New England, NY, California, south west. A lot of Midwest, Northwest, and South.

Pros

Liberal home time policy, great equipment, dispatch treats you like an equal. A lot of North Carolina drivers and freight Paid detention, layover, breakdown

Cons

Medical bennies are a bit expensive. Trucks are governed at 64

I'm a new driver. Within 8 months of working here I was making .50 per mile. Trucks are all blue Peterbilt. A couple trucks are different brand, but those are "experiments". Home time policy is basically go home as often as you want for as long as you want (within reason) and give 10 days notice prior. Very accommodating. New drivers to the industry start out at .36 per mile. Then we have performance pay, which is based on mileage, mpg, being on time, safety, tickets, etc. up to .50 cpm. You are reevaluated every 4 months. Hazmat is required and you get an extra .05 cpm on hazmat loads. In 8 months I've hauled 3 hazmat loads. I'm kept plenty busy. I averaged 3041 miles/week over my first 6 months.

Pros

New equipment, no babysitting, lots of miles available, we are not held at terminals and forced to complete checklists before being allowed to depart. We are treated like adults here.

Cons

maintenance does a good job, but they seem disorganized sometimes about what was supposed to get done and the history of what has been done.

Poor excuse for a trucking company! Magnum only operates Monday thru Friday 8am - 5pm. If a driver delivers and is empty after 5pm, it will be the next afternoon at the earliest before you get dispatch. If you get empty after 5pm on Friday, it will be Monday afternoon at the earliest before a driver gets a dispatch. A driver averages sitting 3 days a week.. 2 of the 3 days will be waiting for the delivery appointment. No layover paid, waiting to deliver to the customer. The peterbilt trucks are over engineered pieces of junk! Never ending computer problems. Split governed speed 62/65. Too slow for modern time in the transportation business. People's net on board computer program. The computer program is not correct. 3 messages to get all the information on 1 dispatch. Some of the information is incorrect. The computer program is incorrect. Magnum has more problems than I have stated,,,,, Magnum is a total waste of time.

Pros

Nothing good about Magnum transport

Cons

Everything is a con with magnum transport

This company is not on the same page as everyone does their own thing nobody communicates with each other, shop doesn't want to fix your truck but only at their leisure, low pay and liars are them the best as saying 85 % no touch freight but you lock down your own load or it's on you for damages is crap so don't work for this company.

Pros

Keep you moving if you not make them mad and make them money

Cons

Trucks only goes 64, nobody on same page, will let you set, shop don't work with you only convenient for them, pay not great.
