Pros
At CPC, drivers are compensated for every minute of on-duty time. With time and a half for anything over eight hours. Weekly paychecks usually have a healthy amount of overtime. CPC is one of the largest providers of private fleet service drivers in the US. A majority of our 3,500 plus drivers are career professionals who can do what it takes to accomplish our 24x7x365 mission: deliver freight on time, safely. When you have a large team/family like this you feel certain you can accomplish anything and when you have easy access to your chain of command all the way up to the president of the company you feel supported. You might find higher pay elsewhere but you won't find the care and support for your well-being and family life like you will here.
Cons
It can be tough to schedule off duty activities and appointments. Loads are reliant on multiple team members from loading at the warehouse to relays bringing your trailer to you. Weather and breakdowns can affect everyone's schedules - you have to be flexible. Hopefully you have family and friends who understand.
