Managers do no know how to manage people, poor leadership, unprofessional employees, lack of team work, favoritism, lack of positive reinforcement, no one takes accountability., You have to rely on overtime bcz the pay sucks, so no work life balance.

Pros

Have a good rapport with your front office management because they micromanage you are always a liar

Cons

Crappy equipment no training go go go attitude,,. pull any employee off to the side and ask them a question and their answer is I don't give a and that starts in the office all the way down to the load pullers. They do not care what time you get off what time you start as in if it fits their needs . They can take a nice vacation but when you ask for a week off and if another driver or load puller has a day off in the middle of the week you cannot have that week because somebody else has got your spot for one crappy day that's how they operate the biggest backstabbing organization I've ever been around with no training asked for something you get nothing . can never trust anybody there somebody is always out to get you and you are always a liar.. never get "Good Job "out of anybody.. And if there is a foul up your butt is on the line for a very long time, years .Do 8000 jobs correct but by God don't be on the wrong side of them once you have a screw up with their crappy equipment it's constantly butt kissing! To The Bitter End!! and you will get tired of it very quickly: people are very uneducated do not know what the right hand to the left hand is doing and that's a fact ask anybody but then again they say I don't give a CRAP!!
