Pros
The work is consistent, you will always have a job in trucking.
Cons
Zero professional development opportunities, you might see Trimac Academy & internships being promoted on LinkedIn, however from an internal perspective stay away. Opportunities and visibility is reserved for the Canadian sector. The Houston corporate office is the red-headed stepchild of the entire Trimac organization, there are no events or work culture programs. This company has been in operation for 75 years & is almost a billion dollar company, yet the company Christmas Party is luncheon on the first floor. No annual bonus, extremely high deductibles for even the best insurance plan they offer and high premiums especially if you have a family. Operating fully remote is possible and was in full effect during the pandemic. Due to micromanagement, zero trust & poor leadership all employees are in office. During my time with Trimac all, colleagues were searching for better opportunities. Pay attention to the high turnover rate. TRIMAC has rebranded their logo, their internal educational platform, & are aggressive in their acquisitions however they are far behind the times in operations. They utilize outdated technology for their drivers and dispatch tools, as well as caters to the grandfathered driver who will refuse to implement new practices.
