Pros

OTR is home every 2 weeks if you want. Steady freight The staff is always helpful, and friendly. Especially My DM Houston Poole. Any problems I have are always dealt with immediately, and he keeps me rolling. They hire people with an imperfect record. Which is both a pro and con. Some people deserve a second chance, and others dont.

Cons

Some of the equipment is in bad shape, but that's due to employees damaging it, and not reporting the problems. Every time I got a bad trailer, or my truck had an issue it was dealt with immediately. Some people refuse to take a little time time to do things right, and it hurts everyone else. The night/weekend staff is hard to get a hold of quite often. That can be a pain when you need something.

Pros

Greetings.., My tenured at Western Express began Jan 2024. Throughout my stationary period with the company, I’ve had the honor and privilege to work with agent Ken Brooks. Ken and myself have not always witnessed or observed the same portrait at times. However, like every relationship, there will be disagreements. Nonetheless, Ken has served as the head-coach and myself the point-guard. Similar to many coaches and athlete duo. Ken is knowledgeable, reliable and sharp thinking, as his intuitive nature pours success. He not only wants you to thrive and be successful, he is position-less in one’s ability to be successful. This is accomplished by providing routes, formative feedback and suggestions to maximize your time and money. Despite his motion for team and honors. He is easy to communicate and has often replied to questions while on his break. Not everyone has that property trait, particular quality, skill, or attribute. Through my lens, Ken has put his best foot forward and continues aid, guidance and do what is best for the individual (myself).

Cons

If I needed to add a con, it would be better transparency. Nonetheless, Ken has shown, he is willing and able to build on this con. He has strengthen his communicational traits.
