At 1st it wasn’t a good company but over the years it started to get better! I’ve worked for them a long time and stuck it out over the years but now with their new integrated payroll system.... they proved to be a sorry company to work for once again! Let me explain.... it was fine for regional drivers when getting paid by the mile! The company gave two 5 cent increases over the past year but now that they decided to pay by the hour.... they basically took those pay increases back! When i 1st started here their local drivers were getting paid $14 an hour. It has been like that for years, now they trying to pay their regional drivers the same. I made more by the cpm than i did by the hour..... basically all the regional drivers just got their increases revoked and now have to get bumped down in pay! But in reality...... this company has to live by California law and that law is to pay for overtime after 40 hrs which they are not doing.... they want to pay straight pay no matter how many hours put. You can put up to 70 hrs a week and still get no overtime pay. If that is the case then it ain’t worth driving over the road no more, it’s better to be local and go home every night!! I don’t think it’s fair for OTR drivers who have to spend time away from family and live in their trucks every week to be paid the same as local drivers! If it was a problem for local drivers not making money then they should have bumped up the hourly wage! Not take away from the regional OTR drivers! Bottom line.... they basically screwing the OTR drivers!!

Kkw is active on their youtube and social media image. Looks like they are agressively creating a new driver friendly image.
