Pros

Great company with a great atmosphere. Never a dull moment. Rewarding, fast-paced environment where those that are truly committed to the success of the company are recognized and rewarded. There is a ton of true talent in every department of our company starting with our drivers on up to our senior leadership. I work operations in our asset division and I can say that from day one it was made clear to me that our drivers are the key to our success. Since then I have done everything that I can to look out for the best interest of my drivers while meeting the needs of the business. If you are a motivated, think outside of the box/just make it happen kind of person who isn't afraid to make decisions, holds themselves accountable for their own success/failures as well as your role in the companies success, then this is the place where you will advance and succeed.

Cons

Some days can be very stressful and exhausting, but at then end of they day it is rewarding to know that you made things happen.

Pros

Home Time Is Reliable ,Easy Work (No-Touch Freight).

Cons

There is no overtime pay, and the benefits package is limited. Drivers are often required to work 60–70 hours per week at straight time. Routes are assigned on a first-come, first-served basis, so there is little predictability—you typically don’t know your route until the start of your shift. The equipment is equipped with radar-based safety systems, including speed control and automatic emergency braking, which can be restrictive and take time to adjust to, contributing to a more stressful driving experience.
