Pros

Very family orientated, great pay ,awesome benefits,and you get home when your scheduled to be home .

Cons

The one thing that sticks out in my mind is the steps that the dispatcher has to take to get you a load. First your dispatcher has to pick the load then they send it to the planner who in turn sends it to customer service then back to the planner and again back to the dispatcher then finally out to the truck. There has to be a much easier way to do this .

Pros

Good office camaraderie, regular PTO available for long term employees if you stay there long enough, good overall structure in place to deal with most common trucking company/industry issues.

Cons

Management has a tendency to nitpick issues. Everything is goal and growth oriented as a public company so you're always expected to do more with less. During the current trucking market they keep looking for new ways to trim the fat. This was the first year they didn't provide company calendars to employees, and got rid of the yearly floating PTO day as well. 401k contributions also diminished. There were also blatant sexist/transphobic/homophobic remarks made nearly daily and nothing was ever done about it.
