Pros

Liked the hours, liked the flexibility and the local work

Cons

Interoffice conflicts, was applying to work back there again, was sent for a physical -more compliance numbers on cpap were good for 30 days almost for 90.. found out the place where I was going for my physical looked more at 90 day compliance so I had to withdraw my application for a week to get my 90 compliance up to speed.. went back later to apply after I had my 90 day compliance good to go... no one would talk to me to the point where I was getting hung up on... when I finally did get someone found out I had been blacklisted for refusing a physical... tried to explain that I hadn't refused but had to withdraw to get my 90 day compliance..dud not care one bit..so before you apply make sure you do not withdraw an application based on the physical because it will be looked at as if you refused the physical..

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.
