Pros

Salary, however you understand after working 12+ hours a day, why you are compensated above industry standards.

Cons

Poor Management, dysfunctional culture, lack of communication among the employees internally. They continue to bring in outside consulting firms to have round table discussions with customers in hopes of gaining a better understanding of what the customer expectations are, when in fact the Account Managers and Drivers are continually providing feedback on this topic. Administrative work for Account Managers equates to 70% of any given day. If you are continually addressing the same issues, you are not going to be able to grow new business, instead you are only working to hold on to current customers (Retention). Not good business practice.

Pros

You don’t have anybody looking over your shoulder. You are home every day. The pay is pretty darn good. Good work/life balance

Cons

Inward facing camera. Used as a disciplinary tool and not a coaching tool. Point system.

Thank you for helping us keep the freight moving for 3 years! We appreciate your feedback and are grateful you enjoy being a part of the Saia family. We also value knowing your concerns about the driver-facing cameras, so thank you for sharing those details.
