Pros

Competitive Pay Great hours Paid Holidays OK benefits

Cons

Most people in management are only in that position either because they know someone, or they were in management with a company that was previously bought out. If you've been with the company longer, you're automatically seniority, versus those that actually know what they're doing. Nothing is confidential, management tells everyone's personal problems, including reasons why someone was terminated. They talk about you behind your back, smile in your face. Code of Ethics/Conflict of Interest is constantly broken. New employees are started out with higher pay than those that have been with the company for years.

Pros

Steady work with consistent OT. Pay is average. They employ a minimal number of drivers (and equipment) so you will definitely get your hours. If someone leaves, takes PTO, or a truck goes down, it gets spread across the remaining drivers.

Cons

Benefits are average at best. Most drivers are expected to work holidays. PTO is approved on seniority basis so don’t plan on being home with family during these times. No shortage of micromanagement. Definitely feel like a line item on a spreadsheet somewhere and not a human.
