Pros

Most of the employees i worked with were really great people. Other than that there is nothing positive to say about this P O S company.

Cons

The treat you like dirt and nothing you do is ever fast enough or good enough, They Hire terminal managers who for the most part have no business doing that job. Most of the terminal managers i dealt with had no people skills and thought that you manage people by threatening and trying to intimidate them. This is the only company in all my 23 yrs as a driver that i was ever told that if i was concerned with dot regulations and obeying them that i needed to look for work else where. They destroy the freight that you are expected do deliver to people and have no concern about doing the damage. I was told to make every effort to hide any damage i found on the freight. And they want you to operate unsafe equipment even though they know the tractor should be red tagged and parked until repaired. I was fired from this company in 07 because i refused to operate a tractor with severely bad brakes. They refused to fix them and the truck was not safe to operate.I was told by the t m that i had 2 choices drive that truck or go home. So i went home. And i should add if they fire you they will lie about why. They tell people that i was fired for insubordination. Not true as insubordination means refusing or failing to follow a lawful order. I was ordered to drive a red tag tractor that could not be safely or lawfully operated. If you are thinking of working here don't, just run as fast as you can.

Pros

Consistent Routes you get to know your customers. They have their own fueling station and mechanics. The Terminal managers and dispatchers were really great to work with. I like that they protect the employee if an issue arises with s customer.

Cons

All the trucks are the same but they all have their own personality. Some of the terminals csn be really dirty.
