Business Outlook
Pros
The benefits, stability, and the pay. Very safety and family oriented company, especially being one of the largest LTL Carriers in the industry. If you're an OTR (Over-the-road) truck driver, Estes Express has many different weekly schedules for both local and OTR truck drivers. From personal experience, I started as an OTR extra-board truck driver over ten years ago, and now am a terminal supervisor. So career opportunities are definitely there.
Cons
Depending on which terminal you work out of, and it's geographical location, will decide what opportunities you have and how often. Most bid routes are re- bid every year. Seniority matters. Not so good for the newly hired, obviously.
