    I have nothing great to say about this carrier working for them in 2024. Dispatch was spotty at best after my first week. I had to keep requesting load by phone because would not be sent after my deliver via eld like I was told. The company expanded from 300 truck capacity in 2023 to 600 trucks in 2024. So I think I had enough of the growing pains. They will hire you for otr and you will be stuck running loads from Fargo, to west Chicago, and the Elk Grove village terminal often. And if your paperwork is not sent via the scan app on the last day of weekly period you do not get paid that week. One more bit of info the Magnum repair shops at the terminals do not have enough staff to repair truck or do oil changes, so you may wait on the weekend for that. And no coffee in driver lounges that I could find, so that upset me as well.

    No coffee? Yup I would be looking elsewhere! How dare they do not roll out the red carpet... What kind of trucking company has no coffee? I mean really!

    is it really that hard to get your paperwork scanned in by the end of the pay period?

    I drove for them from Thanksgiving 2021 to end of January 2023 and never had a problem contacting dispatch, and i ran a lot more than just Chicago and back.

    I agree with the shop being understaffed but what shop isn’t these days

    That "no coffee in the driver lounges" would DEFINITELY be a deal breaker for me! :eek: o_O

    That should have been one of your first interview qtns....

    Exactly. They love to micro manage you on your route as well. Like if weather is inclimate, telling you to shut down, even if road is not closed. Kinda weird. Lot of growing pains with magnum right now. I cannot afford to fight that mess everyday for a load.
     
    JForce28 and TruckDriver87 Thank this.
