    Steer CLEAR of this company! My husband and I worked for them for about a month and a half and it was chaos the entire time. First of all if you bank with Navy Federal they will tell you that they don’t direct deposit to Navy Federal. They will offer to pay you via Zelle. The truck they had us in was a bucket of bolts held together by paper clips and elmers school glue. On our first run together the starter went and one of us literally had to bang on it while the other tried to start up the truck EVERYTIME it cut off or we didn’t idle it fast enuf, after the starter went the air compressor and dryer went, after that went the transmission started going and the truck would buck and jump like a wild horse. We kept being promised a new truck once we made it back to Los Angeles, but that wasn’t happening being on the east coast, coming as far as the Midwest and then back to the northeast. We were originally hired for a dedicated account with elite flowers that ran from Miami to Los Angeles and back. After 1 run we got called into the office and told by the owners Alex and Oleg that the customer wanted “the guys from before” to come back and if they saw us they would not load us or unload us. (Later we found out that was how they get drivers in). We went to the oil fields and my husband left their truck where we were after we cleaned it and secured it leaving the keys with the truck stop manager. They refused to pay him all of the $ they owed him so I told him to just take the loss. A few days after this Oleg the company owner called Zelle and disputed every monetary transaction for our pay statements, def and money’s owed when we were broken down as reimbursement. So, now my banking privileges are suspended until it is resolved. I sent every text regarding how we wanted the pay sent to my bank account, every pay statement for him and I, every BOL..just everything...pages and pages upon proof that I handed over to our attorney to send to Navy Federal and Zelle both.

    Not sure what the likelihood is of them putting something on our DAC reports but I’m ready to dispute it with all of that proof if/when that does happen. Do yourself a FAVOR and steer CLEAR of these ppl!

    Those 1099 companies cut every corner possible. I hope your banking privileges get resolved

    It's a way to wire money, like Cash App or pay pal. I've worked for a company that paid me like that, luckily it was a means to an end. When you get paid that way, it is an indicator I'd what type of company they are.

    I lasted there 10 days ... A total nightmare almost died in one of thier jalopys because some hack deleted the def system. Coming out of Vegas a fire erupts under the cab pull over 2 fire extinguishers later ... any water I had and yes even a pee bottle to put it out. I should of let it burn to the ground on the side of the highway because of course after I called them and told them I’m out they screwed me out of any funds owed me . Good times lol !! Live and learn

    No it was a 2013 charcoal gray Volvo I so regret not letting it go up in flames dirtbags
    You know I was thinking about the dot stuff too but then I was thinking these ruskies have my #### home address so I decided to just turn the page. These guys are definitely shady payroll people were on East coast just a weird setup.
    How about how they wanted to fuel the reefers with the truck fuel just put the hose down and pull up and then fuel reefer . Karmas a you know what it will bite them at some point.
