Pros

This company has a ton of freight and will work you consistently. There are a lot of locations so if you don't like to stay in one place you can relocate yearly. This carrier has a lot of newer equipment. Expect to work 8 hrs to 14 hrs. 5-6 days a week.

Cons

There are not enough trucks or drivers and tons of freight. If you get fatigued or sick plan on having to fight to get a day off without being written up. There is some older equipment that can leave you broke down and if you are paid by the load you do not get compensation until you have been stranded for over 2hrs. Carry some tools for a quick fix and limp it into the closest terminal so you can keep moving. Sometimes wait times for loads or empty trailers can take up to 2hrs. This is unreasonable and when you wait in to many places for to long it drives down pay per hour to below your hourly wage. If a driver is being paid per load they should be compensated for exaggerated wait times.

Pros

Benefits are decent, co workers are nice

Cons

Hiring people who do not care and put in very little effort. There are a lot of tasks assigned to CSRs and very little downtime to take care of them. The phone rings off the hook.
